Luster set

Being British we love Tea and Cake. Although most of the time we use mugs, sometimes you just want to use a lovely tea set.

Brook Green does get tea sets in rather often, but this one is a little bit different with a lovely luster glaze.



A burnt orange and white luster set for £8
Teapot
Milk jug
Sugar pot
1 plate
2 cups and 2 saucers
One cup does have a tiny chip on the rim, so it is sold as seen.

A luster glaze is when the pottery is covered in a metallic glaze which gives an effect of iridescence.

Now all you need is a tea party to show it off!

Bye for now

Potty for Pottery

Haven't done any bric a brac for a while, so today we have to show to you - some Dartmouth Pottery.
 
Dartmouth Pottery, situated in the south Devon town of Dartmouth, was established in 1947 and is still operating. 
A lovely sea blue this pair of vases are £16.

On the bottom they are marked "98 DARTMOUTH POTTERY" and both still have their little gold stickers on.

We really like the funky square shape of these pair. Twisted squares. 
They are an inch wide (2.5cm) and approx 12cm high.

Bye for now
