VINTAGE 1920s 1lb SPIKING & Co LONDON HER MAJESTY&HRH PRNCE WALES MARMALADE POT
Item History & Price
A VINTAGE SPIKING & Co, 5 DOVER STREET. W & BRANCHES, LONDON, 1lb SQUAT SIZE STONEWARE MARMALADE JAR OR POT which has been found buried in an old domestic rubbish dump a few years ago that dates back to the very early 1920's. Around the base of the pot below London are the words TO HER MAJESTY and HRH THE PRINCE OF WALES so Spiking & Co had a Royal Appointment at that time. Note the strongly printed highly detailed black transfer.... The MALING, NEWCASTLE on TYNE made pot measures just under 9.5cm high by 8.5cm in diameter across the lip edge and is in GOOD FAIR CONDITION being very clean with full gloss sheen to the glaze surface, there is some light staining but no residue left inside. There are usage marks on the on the top rim edge and also around the base with some two chips caused by use on the inner rim edge, a stable hairline to the left hand side plus there are also some small manufacturers kiln blow faults which are only to be expected of these mass produced throwaway pots of the time. The hairline has been present for many years whilst on display in another person's collection and sounds quite solid when rapped with the knuckles. There are two flaws on the front base edge which are under glazed so were caused during manufacture. Please note each pot is hand made and has its own individual markings making it unique and different. I am quite happy to combine purchases for buyers to help save money on postage and shipping costs.
