    Picked this up from the guy who liked to smash ornaments this morning. Amazed it's in one piece. A few sites attributing it to Minton although I've never come across this back stamp by them before. An impressed 'No. 16'

    Aha. Some guy on the market who does house clearances. He seems to sell at low prices to drive high volumes of sales when it comes to bric a brac. As a consequence some lovely items get destroyed.

    I would give Mr Smasher my telephone number with instructions to call me before any further smashing takes place. At least you might get a crack at a few good pieces. No pun intended.
