Adams Egg Coddlers

Adams coddlers are made in England. These coddlers have a mildly convex shape, with a very small pedestal, and a distinct "lip" at the top where the metal rim meets the porcelain body of the coddler.

The lid is metal with a flat lifting ring.

Unless otherwise noted, each pattern comes in both a double size, which is 4" high, and a single size, which is 3½" high.

Backstamps

There are two backstamp variations known. We created this nomenclature of "types" to help us identify individual backstamps ... these "types" are meaningless outside the context of this site. We don't know the chronology of the backstamps' usage.

Backstamp Type 1 consists of the crown, the name ADAMS in a large type, and ENGLAND between two parallel arcs underneath.

Backstamp Type 2 consists of the inscriptions REAL ENGLISH IRONSTONE and ESTABLISHED 1657 in a double circle. Inside the circle is a crown, ADAMS, and Made in England.
