Antique Sprigged Blueware Jug with repaired handle - Copeland late Spode

White earthenware jug with blue body and Grecian scene in white sprigged figures by Copeland. The backstamp is the "Frank's Boat" one of a design used between 1894 & 1910. The RD No, 180288, refers to this mark and not the pot design. Unfortunately the handle has been broken and repaired using what appears to be epoxy resin. It looks to be a clean enough break so a skilled restorer may be able to do something with it. There also looks to be a 3/4" hairline crack on the inside of the spout. Despite the damage it's very clean and ind still very nice visually.

Vintage Posy Basket - Crown Ducal

Posy basket in cream and brown with floral pattern on the inside and green twisted rope handle. The backstamp was used from the 1930s until the 1950s and the general condition would fit with this. It has lost some of the detail to the flowers and there is some ingrained grime, especially to the handle which I am in the process of removing. It is crazed all over but once cleaned will present well.

Unusual Brown & Cream Glazed Shallow Cup

SOLD

Curious shallow cup or mug in a cream and brown speckled glaze with a spiral swirl to the inside centre. It is slightly squared with a handle and resembles, at first sight, a candle holder. But it's very well balanced and the handle is a comfortable size so could serve as a mug. Very unusual!

14cm (d) x 4cm

Vintage Stoneware Salt & Pepper Pots

Stoneware salt and pepper pots in retro 1970s brown and green glaze. They are decorated with a band of chevrons. The pepper pot has an odd indentation along the edge that looks as though it's been there since it was made and escaped being glazed but are otherwise in great condition. They will need new bungs.

Hand Carved Wooden Plaque - Flower

Hand carved wooden relief of a flower, probably an amateur piece as it is signed on the back ESG 1988. Unfortunately one of the leaves has lost its tip but if you're confident enough and have the tools you may be able to disguise this. Still a nice piece with a certain rustic quality to it.

Vintage Green Stoneware Mug - B R Stoneware, Burton

SOLD

Large heavy mug in green slip glazed stoneware by BR Stoneware of Burton. There isn't much information about B R Stoneware out there but it does seem to confuse some people with some calling it Bretby. The Bretby backstamp is fundamentally different although whether there is a connection, I don't know. In lovely condition though and full of character.

Measurements are approximate: 9.5cm x 11.5cm max diameter incl handle
