Vintage Handpainted Jug - Pattern 8166 - Grays Pottery - Susie Cooper

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.

Antique Ironstone Milk Jug - Anthony Shaw, Burslem

Antique milk jug with ornate handle by Anthony Shaw of Burslem in a rather sturdy and undecorated white ironstone, "Stone China". The backstamp dates it to approximately between 1860 and 1882. At one time it would have had a hinged pewter lid but this has broken off leaving only the two lugs still in situ either side of the handle. Apart from a little crazing it's in excellent condition for its age. When I acquired it it was covered in a horrible orange paint and I have done my best to remove it all but there may be the odd rogue spot in the recesses.
