Hi, Anyone with any info on this 'Jackfield' type creamer??
Miniature sized at 3 3/4" x 1 1/2" max and early looking with a very hand finished look.
I know the 22 teapots are a very moot point as to their origin and the mark on some Redware items now being attributed to Germany.
But this is a very clear S. &. Co
27. mark.
I remember seeing a black Swan shaped teapot years ago with a similar mark and the guy insisted it was Mexborough.🤔

😳Pleased to see they are considering offers.👍😜😎R.

Think it's time to put my prices up.??🤔🤣😂😅. What do you think.?? Bit optimistic? The same seller has got another couple of Rockingham listings with similar pricing...but the postage is FREE.😳.
Lots of Rockingham and other Yorkshire pots on sale in my Unit 138 at Elsecar Antique Centre.😁😎....(nothing like the price of this trio on E Bay.)😳.

Please Like & Share.👍🙂😎R.

It doesn't seem to matter how many times books are published disputing the old tradition these "furry"animals were made in Swinton auction houses insist on listing them as Rockingham.😬
I guess it's to bump up the price.🤔.

Interesting "Sheffield Flood" jug .

Bit knocked about but still intact and good images.
Don't come along too often.👍😁😎R.

Can't really blame the EBay seller for this.😁🫤.He's just going on the evidence of the receipt.😐.
Some 46 years ago a very respectable antique dealer sold these as Brameld...and £31 wasn't cheap.

I am still shown photos of the treasured Rockingham pieces that have been in people's families for generations which are in fact unmarked Staffordshire.😥.
Always try to be kind.
Jean had a reply..."Oh that's lovely ...not seen that design before."...No sorry I'm not buying at the moment ,got too much stock,but thanks for the offer.😁.

Small cream jug and sugar bowl.... pierced creamware with a crazed glaze.
Unmarked but attributed to J T Morton.
(I have the same piece with the Morton Filey mark.)
Could have been made at Leeds or after his move to the coast.
As mentioned before, these Morton pieces are very finely potted and if unmarked it's mainly the glaze that identifies them from the earlier Leeds items.

Has anyone seen these before or illustrated in reference works??

As you see they are circular 4 3/8" dia and one has the Leeds Pottery 1" impressed mark.
They have the crackle glaze of the Morton/Seniors period late 19th/into the 20th century.
Depicting "J Haydn" and "Beethoven" names in relief above the heads.
As you can see they have a small hole to enable hanging which is glazed inside indicating it was added during manufacture.
The smaller oval ones are recorded in creamware and basalt but not this size 🤔.
I haven't started trawling the NCS journals etc but I thought I would ask the Leeds experts amongst us first.
Any info would be appreciated.👍😁😎R.

Took mine out after six months with no interest.🫤 and sold it privately.
Just shows it's all about the time and the place....🙄😎R.
