2 handleless cups, 1 saucer Transferware COLOGNE c1850

Here are two handleless cups and 1 saucer in a blue transferware pattern. The pattern is COLOGNE, and was made by J & S Alcock Jr. c. 1848-1850. One of the cups is stained. It has no chips no cracks. It also has no makers mark. The second cup is whiter and clean, but has a chip on the rim as can be seen in the photo. It also has a smaller chip under the glaze which I don't think can be seen in the photo. It has a registry mark on the bottom, with J & S ALCOCK JR above the registry mark, and COLBRIDGE underneath the registry mark.

The saucer is crazed and slightly browned under the glaze, but has no chips no cracks. It has the same mark as the second cup, plus a beautiful cartuouche with COLOGNE 2 in the center, and J & S ALCOCK JR and COBRIDGE within an inner ring.
