Notes
If the amount of Hampton pots seen at auction and on auction sites is anything to go by, this must have been an extremely popular pattern. It has been recorded on a wide range of both useful and ornamental ware such as cups & saucers, tea and coffee pots, plates, dishes, jugs, bowls, sandwich sets, vases and biscuit barrels.
A pattern sold by the London retailer Harrods.
‘The People’s Friend’ is the Scottish publishing company DC Thomson’s flagship magazine title. Founded in 1869, it has its own annual charitable appeal: The Love Darg, a fundraising competition of knitted items. In the early 1930s, Gray’s Pottery provided some of the appeal prizes. The magazine extract shown here (last image) is the report of the 1932 appeal and six sets of jugs were awarded in various categories, some, or maybe all, being provided by Gray’s Pottery. The jug in the first image, referred to as Paris shape, is of the type used for Love Darg prizes, in sets of three jugs of different sizes. See pattern 9596 for an example of such a set.
