Shelley

marked 974 Shelley england

baby plates, the one on the left is Shelley, the one on the right is BISTO

1930's backstamp, well 1925-1945 is more accurate I think. Bought today as a job lot with the Portmeirion jug I posted.

I have the same jug/vase bought today as Deecee has - 1925-45 backstamp in green - lovely big jug in bright colours - I would call this 'Harmony' range?

This shape 932 vase is about 15cm tall -- Shelley did taller and shorter 'volcano' ones.

Four vases ranging from 13cm to 25cm tall.



They have shape numbers: the smallest is 955, then 974, 980 and 986 (tallest).

Here are four banded jam pots...



and two more with the dripware glaze...



and two vases which stand about 15cm tall - shape 933...

those jam pots really do it for me, I often see Shelley pottery that has nice aspects but those have it all in spades!
I also think the way you group pots and display them adds considerably to their appeal

Hi, Dan

Having a few together does add a bit of punch and grouping various colours makes it more interetsting. It's nice that this Art Deco ware is not trendy and relatively cheap nowadays.

but it still fits perfectly in modern homes so it just a matter of time before people want to own it again

Shelley Puff Puff Puff trio, Woooooo wooooooooooooo!

Mmmm never seen one, can we see the base(s)?

Is that the Ribblehead viaduct?

I don't think i have it anymore since it was damaged. It's probably had the late foley mark judging from other online examples.

Three ginger jars. Maybe there's a fourth size?

None have shape numbers, but the tallest is 21cm, then 17cm and 12cm...

Four 'volcano' vases. The tallest is about 23cm...

I think I've got the full set...

I've now got four...
