Un-Named Patterns

The Un-Named patterns were released for a few reasons we know of:
One was as a lesser expensive option to get more people
interested in Royal Albert, these would have come out as a small tea set with maybe
with only a cream and sugar and cookie plate.
Secondly was because it was very popular to have some extra pieces that were similar to the named patterns and maybe were just released in a tea cup and saucer set, or in a limited release with just a few pieces and a short run.
"Seconds" were also stamped with an Un-Named stamp some times because they were of lesser quality, so they didn't put a pattern name on it.
They also sold Un-Named versions of popular patterns
in other then main stream markets.
And some Patterns they just didn't give a name to, they were just released with out a name. This was the case with a lot of older sets.
Now a days I haven't seen any more unnamed, Un-Named stopped in the 1980s
