Having done a quick search, it appears that the rim on your pot may be been ground down after being damaged. As this model number appears to usually have a flared rim.

Good god! That was a workout for the old grey matter! think I'm getting the hang of it now. Thank you for your help.


So anyhow, I picked this up recently and have really fallen in love with it. It's a bit simpler than others I have seen, I wonder if it is an earlier example?

The colours are much, much zingyier than the picture suggests Laughter , just sad that the glaze has begun to flake off the rim, but this I suppose is to some extent expected with its age. I wonder if anybody could date it for me? Thank you. X x

I think that 114 is the shape number, which makes it an early shape, but I am not familiar with this type of decoration. My gut feeling is that it is later than the shape would suggest and I think that your vase is just in the 20th century, but I could well be wrong.

A 22cm tall candlestick - not sure of the date, but 2219 seems to be quite late. Anyone know?

Here in S. E. London you do come across buildings using the local tiles in the same way when built around this time. Here it's Doulton Lambeth.

It brings back memories for me because, before I discovered studio pottery, art pottery by Burmantofts and the like was the pottery that I liked; collected and dealt in.

Hi Tenpot, thanks for posting these they bring back memories of our collecting in past times, we once had a Cox ebonised cabinet on which we displayed a number of Burmantofts plain mono glazed pieces and the effect was quite stunning, Leonard king is name that is at the very top of Burmantofts production second only to De Morgan's Isnik work.
