Ceramic acquisitions: August & September



The next category of additions is ceramic vintage and retro pottery, including tableware and ornamental items. Firstly from the Russian company of Lomonsov a flask decorated with traditional figure in red and gold - a handsome piece

Some very good quality retro tableware from Denby, as usual well made but heavy - a jug and oil and vinegar set in the Burlington pattern in blue designed by Glyn Colledge.

Next a mixed collection - Villeroy & Boch cup and saucer in the Acapulco pattern, Midwinter cruet pieces in the Oakley pattern, Midwinter Spanish Garden bowls and two Italian egg cups. The Villeroy and Boch were purchased at a recent flea market, the other pieces were found in our garage!


Miscellaneous ceramic items


Here is another Egersund serving bowl from Norway to add one already in the MillCottageRetro store (found at a fleamarket and purchased from the same lady as the Villeroy and Boch). The other item is a National Trust container designed by Dorn Williams, 1978 and which was found in the garage!

Tableware items from Norway and the UK


I am not sure about the origin of these items but I think that they may be from Czechoslovakia as one has PRAHA included in the design. There is a paper label underneath which I have not researched yet but I just liked the design and texture. Found at the same fleamarket as the above pieces.


Many of these are already in our Etsy Store and the rest will follow before the end of this week. Hope you like them!
