Notes

The first of the two images shown here, the front and back of a company information photograph, was used for an advertisement which appeared regularly in Pottery and Glass from May 1950 to January 1952 (see the Adverts section).
The label on the back of the photograph reads in full:
PATT.NO. A.8603. HANDPAINTED BORDER IN SILVER LUSTRE.
PATT NO. A.8667. APPLIQUE FLORAL DESIGN: – BACKGROUND IN SILVER LUSTRE. FLOWER ENAMELLED IN LILAC, LEAVES IN GREEN. FOOT LINE IN SILVER.
PATT NO. A.8672. RESIST BORDER BACKGROUND IN SILVER LUSTRE
PATT NO. A.8673. IS EXACTLY AS A.8672 BUT IN BRONZE LUSTRE
PATT NO. A.8665. RESIST PATT: – SILVER LUSTRE BACKGROUND 2 REPEATS ON JUG.
PATT NO. A.8666. IS EXACTLY AS A,8665 BUT IN BRONZE LUSTRE.
PATT NO. A.8669. DESIGN IN RESIST SILVER LUSTRE. BACKGROUND FINISH AND HALF SOLID HANDLES, IN SILVER. 3 REPEATS ON JUG.
PATT NO. A.8670. IS EXACTLY AS A.8669 BUT IN BRONZE LUSTRE.
PATT NO. A.8671. DESIGN IN RESIST SILVER LUSTRE, BACKGROUND ‘PHEASANT’ TRACED AFTERWARDS IN SILVER: HANDLES SOLID.
The jug, bottom left in the photograph, is the example of both A8671 and A8678.

Over the life of the company, Gray’s Pottery produced a wide range of resist lustre designs (see the website section Patterns, Classification, Lustre, Copper lustre).
The 1926 pattern number 7252 is an example of an early silver resist pattern and A8671 continues the tradition.
Several silver resist patterns were duplicated in copper/bronze lustre: for A8671 it was A8678.
