pottery/ceramic/copper items

This is a nice teapot , measures 10 nch wide 6inch high and 4inch depth , small mark on lid , think its from 1950s

next is a blue bowl in good condition , 3 1/2 inch high 4inch at widest, no idea of age

next is an ashtray again in good condition but no idea of age, 3/4 inch high 4width x 4 depth

copper pot in another thread.

 

I don't remember the idea of companies making lines of merchandise specifically marketed as 'collectable' before the 1970s. Checking, I see that's when Bradford got going:

The teapot is much later. 1980's - 90's most likely. That's about the time that there was a big teapot craze. Unusual designs (lots of lid decoration, such as yours) were the craze.

The little blue pot looks earlier. Early 1900s, before WWII.

The ashtray looks 1950's - 70's

Only my opinion. No research done.

 

I love that little blue pot.

 

Here's a page of the teapots:

I read somewhere that they were designed by Annie Rowe and made in the Philippines.

 

thankyou.

 

Can you read what it says in the emblem on blue pot? It looks like ION?

 

this is the best i can get it, still cant make out what it says.

 

I found this one. I’m not sure the lid is correct, but that’s not question on yours. I agree with the others, it’s very pretty.

I can’t read this mark either, but maybe some search terms will help. I guess it’s George Jones Crescent.

 

I think I found something like your crocus vase:


The description says:

Lol you Sniped me.
Nice Find !

 

Most sources seem to list the RZB mark as Bavarian although I haven't been able to figure out exactly which company. It's definitely post WWII - I would guess sometime in the 1960's. The decoration is commonly referred to as "Fragonard".
