Notes
If the amount of A8467 pots seen at auction and on auction sites is anything to go by, this must have been a popular pattern. It has been recorded on a wide range of both useful and ornamental ware such as tea ware, jugs, plates and comports.
Many of the pots recorded have been in North America, undoubtedly a reflection of the influence of the British government’s introduction of regulations concerning decorated pottery during the Second World War: the manufacture of decorated pots for the Home market was largely forbidden in order to encourage and develop export sales.
The small jug in the fifth image was known as a ‘Castle’ jug at Gray’s Pottery: see the website section Retailers, North America – USA, Skinners for more information on these jugs.
