Vintage Small Brown Honeycomb Tea Pot - Fosters Pottery


Small (2 cup) tea pot by Fosters of Cornwall. It's in the brown honeycomb design with small lid and accented handle. It is unmarked but I have seen an identical one bearing the original label so am 100% confident it is Fosters. It has been used but there is very little staining and no chips or nips.

Vintage Grey Lustre Jug - Fosters Pottery



Bit of a rarity in that while I'm sure many were produced, other designs by Fosters are far more prevalent. It's a charcoal grey lustre finish jug and marked "Fosters Studio Pottery Cornwall England" and the number 7. The finish, and indeed the handle,  is far more reminiscent of Prinknash and until I turned it over I have to admit I thought it was.  Apart from the two tiny pops which are original they are in excellent condition.
