Mid Sized Planter - Moira Pottery - Hillstonia

 

Wonderful vintage mid-sized planter from the Hillstonia range by the Moira Pottery. The planter is conical with diagonal lines on the rim and considering the pottery closed in the early 70s it is in nigh on immaculate condition. I suspect it has never been used.

Vintage Stoneware Planter - Hillstonia - Moira Pottery

SOLD

Large stoneware planter from the Hillstonia range by Moira Pottery. It's rectangular, shallow with a rough textured finish with a glossy glaze. It does have a couple of chips around the edge and there is a hairline crack onm one of the ends. Encouragingly it looks as though someone has attempted to repair the crack but the glue has now deteriorated and discoloured and is flaking off, suggesting it was done a long time ago (Moira was closed in 1972) and suggesting that it's still quite sound. These were generally designed for outside use and in all other respects it's in very presentable condition.

Large Double Handled Jug/Vase - Hillstonia

Large double handled wood effect jug from the Hillstonia range by Moira Pottery. It looks to be in excellent condition although with the rustic finish on this style of Hillstonia it's always difficult to judge!
