Vintage Collectable Miniature Finch Cheese Dish (Boxed) - Palissy




SOLD

Lovely miniature cheese dish in the "Finch" design by Palissy in the Royal Worcester Spode era. This dates it to between 1976 and 1989. I'm not sure which finch is featured on the lid, it appears part gold and bull, but I'm no twitcher. Close examination appears to show none of the images to be identical but whether it is handpainted, I can not say. It is in the original box but there's no documentation. Condition is excellent bar a little crazing.

Vintage Miniature Handpainted Oldcourt Ware Lustre Jug - J. Fryer Ltd



SOLD

Miniature handpainted Oldcourt Ware colour lustre jug by J. Fryer. It has a very distinctive downswept and deco inspired handle and I think the design may be "Avon" although it is not stamped as such.  The backstamp suggests late 1950s - 1960. There is a small chip to the base which is only noticeable in normal use once you know it's there but apart from this and the usual crazing it's in excellent condition.

5.5cm (h) x 6.5cm

Hand Painted Miniature Owl



Lovely hand painted earthenware owl. It's marked on the base with a mark I feel I ought to know - a bird made from the letters B & L inside "Made in England" but for the life of me I can't find it in my references. If anyone knows... Regardless, it's in excellent condition.

Vintage Cottage Ware Teapot - Keele St Pottery



Lovely handpainted "Cottage Ware" teapot by Keele St Pottery. KSP changed its name to Staffordshire Potteries in 1950 and this has a Keele St backstamp so I presume it to be pre-1950. There is the tiniest of chips on the tip of the spout that I can only really see using a loupe, apart from this it seems to be in perfect, unused condition.

23cm x 15cm x 11cm
