Vintage Devon Motto Ware Cockerel Ashtray - Longpark




SOLD

Lovely shield shaped slipware earthenware ashtray from Longpark Pottery, Torquay. It features their familiar cockerel and the motto "Hear all, See all, Say nothing". Their cockerel became popular between the wars and Longpark closed in in 1957 so it is fair to assume this is at least 55-60 years old, maybe much older. Apart from a little crazing it is in superb condition.

11.5cm x 13cm
