Early nineteenth Staffordshire made. Slop bowl.
Pouring with rain today, damnit. But yesterday was LOVELY. I bought an insane amount of stuff, including Tudric pewter. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...

Egyptian, I suspect.

Not a mark, I think it’s just where the pontil has been snapped and not totally polished out. I do think it’s got age, too.

Separate names with a comma.
