Hand
 painted buff coloured jug by Grey's Pottery. It has the later Pharaoh's
 boat version of the backstamp used between 1935 & 45 but on an 
unfamiliar colourway, this one being red and yellow flowers with what 
appear to be gooseberries, with a red rim and handle. My reliable 
internet authority has contacted me suggesting that it is floral pattern
 8166, dating originally from 1928 and possibly by Susie Cooper. The 
later backstamp explained by it probably being a replacement piece from 
the company's matching service. Some ingrained crazing and a little 
colour wear plus a short hairline crack on the inside beneath the yellow
 flower. Still looks nice though.
