Gotheborg.com

This should be of help to anyone seeking to identify Chinese 20th century marks, an elaborate matter, hence the fact that it loads somewhat slowly. Be patient, because it does work. To confuse you even further, there is a feature on Chinese Marks on Japanese Porcelain! Factory Marks and Artists' Names are also linked. Chronology, incidentally, looks at the history of China the country rather than china the product.

Abbey Ceramics Encyclopaedia

So far the only individually detailed manufacturer is Doulton but others are to be added soon.
