Vintage Individual Lidded Soup Bowl

Lidded individual stoneware soup bowl. Treacle glaze outside, white inside. A good few years old it displays signs of being well used although the wear is limited to surface scratching on the white glaze. There are none of the familiar appliance safe marks so I'm hazarding a guess that it may well pre-date any such kitchen device and would add the rider that it may well have a metallic glaze so please err on the side of caution. In very good condition otherwise.

Antique Treacle Glazed Milk Jug - Staffordshire?

SOLD

Very nice treacle glazed earthenware milk jug, possibly from Staffordshire or the Derbyshire potteries. It has two bands of dots around it and stepped sides. I can't make out the name on the base but "Fire" is just discernible, as is "British" but no amount of magnification or tampering with the pictures has revealed any more. I do though believe I have encountered one before and feel I really ought to know the name as I do this for a living! I also suspect it's around 100 years old; the glaze and design suggesting such, although as always I am open to correction and clarification. Bar a little barely visible crazing it's in excellent condition.

Vintage Ceramic Tankard or Mug- Lord Nelson Pottery

Large tankard shaped mug by Lord Nelson Pottery. It's in a treacle glaze with silvered rim and handle and features a cartoon of an Edwardian gentleman cranking his motor (ooh er missus) about to be joined by his impossibly corsetted wife. The opposite side features a small cartoon of the gent alone in his car. The mark on the base suggests it was made in July 1979 and apart from some crazing it's in fine condition. The silvering especially is totally unmarked. A fine addition to your collection.

Vintage Treacle Glazed Tankard w/ coaching Scenes - Ridgways

Dating from the late 1950s - early 60s this is a treacle glazed tankard shaped large mug with silvered rim and handle. It features two illustrations from "Coaching Days and Coaching Ways" by  W. Outram Tristram, originally published by Macmillan and Sons in 1988 but seemingly continuously available in one form or another for almost 100 years. The illustrations are "Down the Hill on a Frosty Morning" and "Changing Horses". These tankards are not uncommon but to find one in excellent condition is becoming more difficult. There is some general crazing and a little bit of wear to the silvering on the handle where the thumb would rest but otherwise it's in very good shape indeed.
