At a recent auction we bought several pieces of interesting pottery including an anti slavery jug, a della robbia charger, a clews & co chameleon...
Interesting name, dErBAYz, not sure why they chose it :) I've used The Saleroom to online bid at B&M auctions but much prefer to be physically...
Is this some kind of carbide machining insert?
Cheers Don, just wondered whether Germany was like Britain in the 1891 and 1921 format (Britain/Made in Britain). Bear, at what point did Germany...
Don, does the Made in Germany mark indicate a slightly later date?
Hi and welcome. It is silver plate and looks like an art deco ashtray. But with the glass liner it may be for butter.
It's fine, that is the edge of his cuff, outlined in dust!!
Nope, it's all good, just a bit dusty and the lid sits slightly proud
wenna said Kovells valued it at $1645 but that looks well over the top. Value helps, but I love jugs (pitchers!) with historical interest
And the other points af: my contribution to roadfill will, I hope, be recognised by the honours committee cluttered: there was some enoch...
OK, the reveal feels a bit superfluous after wenna's posts but the answer is of course, the Ridgway & Abington Hanley stoneware anti-slavery jug....
Totally nailed it! Brilliant! Will post photos tomorrow and more links, including BBC objects.
Very sharp eyes :) Well worth digging deeper, especially on date and relevance to the States.
Just a hint, this item has some historical relevance, especially for the USA.
Gone for recycling :(
We kept this, an Ensign graduated measure, not sure if it is worth very much.
Aaah Mansons, beaker, egg, sorry, I don't think your luck is in on this one :(
We kept that, prob early 20th century, worn plate top, some glass nicks.
Basefill for new road construction ;-)
Gone, never to be seen again, except for road hardcore :-)
