Farmers' Arms  – Sunderland


Scott's Southwick Pottery – 1

An eel pot, c1855 (NB similar flower-decorated pots are found with the 'Crimea' transfer), with the same version of the transfer.
A rare puzzle jug, c1870 with the transfer.  The flower lustre decoration under the spout is very similar to that found on Dixon (Garrison) items from the 1850s.  Also, the decoration of the handle.  It seems likely that the enameller moved from Dixon's to Scott's around 1865, when the former pottery cloed.

Scott's Southwick Pottery – 2

Very similar to the 'plate 3'  transfer below, but note the shading on the knife handle in the foreground (top right detail).
An exceptionally well decorated jug below with the inscribed date, 1857.  The bluebell decoration around the collar is reminiscent of Scott's jugs from the 1830s.

Scott's Southwick Pottery – 3


Ball's Deptford Pottery

This later, orange-bordered plaque, from the last quarter of the 19th century, appears to be from the same transfer plate as the plaque above.

Moore's Wear Pottery

A bowl with a indistinct Moore impress, c1860.
Below, an over-sized mug with the transfer, likely earlier than the bowl above.

Farmers' Arms  – Tyneside


Attributed to Robert Maling, Ouseburn Bridge Pottery, Newcastle

See the 'Life's a ship...' page for details of this attribution.  The bowl is finely potted and was likely made in the 1840s.
Below, a jug with a hand-painted inscription.
The script and the lustre decoration on the handle are very distinctive.  See Life's like a ship, for a mug with this script and handle decoration dated 1857.
The mug below appears to be from the same transfer plate as the items above.  Although, Ian Sharp attributes it to Thomas Fell, again from the 1840s.
This bowl appears to come from the same plate as those above.  The transfer is worn so hard to compare.
Contact Stephen Smith
I'm always happy to hear from other collectors or those looking to sell an item of lustreware.
