We researched this cup and saucer extensively and have establish Argyle is the brand. We cannot find any manufacturer having used the brand Argyle during the manufacturing period however it is likely associated with the Staffordshire Argyle Rd works operated by William Hulme up to 1954 after which it was operated by Gem pottery Ltd, decorators of blanks made in other factories. Many manufacturers have produced Argyle pattern china, but nothing matching this set.
