Googling 220 etc didn’t help.

Hornsea slipware, mould No 220

You are great Denby, well done. It’s 202, my mistake, and it’s a polka dot 1954-56 early slipware. Not always marked with Hornsea mark in that time perhaps. Thank you

Cat with ball (full colour version). One of a set of 6 small cats, modelled by
Marion Campbell 1955/56, never marked.

A hard to find square dish from the "Impact" range (1964/5).

A 5 in "White Frost" vase from the home Decor range (1960/61). By John Clappison.

Some items on the auction table at yesterday's collector's meeting.

Hornsea anvil vase by John Clappison, the best colourway imo and smart, slip decoration

Rare Dog-in-kennel cruets designed by Colin Rawson 1955.

Is Hornsea pottery as popular as it once was? One seems to especially see a lot of Contrast designs in Charity shops that are slow to move off the shelves.

One has to separate the tableware from the decorative/collectable items.
Contrast is in the V&A, won all the design awards, it was very popular,
and produced for many years. There's still a healthy replacement market for it.
The earlier tableware ranges, like Saffron, are getting old now, and craze terribly.

When Hornea produced these items they had to get special permission from the post office and the bank of england,
to use the postage stamps and the banknote designs.

Some rarities on sale at yesterday's Collectors meeting in Lincolnshire.

Picked this vinegar dispenser yesterday along with condiment set,just wondering how hard is the black version to find,can't find many images.

This range was called "Image" from 1980, basically the same range as
"Concept", but using Colin Rawson's new "terramic" body.

I picked this up in a charity shop today. I would of thought if a mustard pot exists there must be the rest somewhere. Any ideas?

Yes, part of a set called "County" from 1965/66.

Thanks for that DD! You are a fount of knowledge! I can't find a single pic on the net of any other piece from that set. Was it a "not popular" pattern? Did it only run for a short period?

There is also a tall salt and pepper that all sat on a round plate.
65/66 suggests only a year maybe.
