This is a cute little hand-painted trio of early 20th century Bough pottery pieces. They are more cabinet pieces for display rather than functional.
This little set has hand-painted a matching intricate floral pattern on each of them.
Each item is fully marked to the base, as photographed.
These cans and saucers were probably a little blank of this earthenware vase which was made by Maling and Sons, Newcastle-on-Tyne, and used by Bough Pottery.
The decoration features the attractive stylized flowers that you find on Bough pieces. The colours are all fresh and spring-like.
CONDITION: In good condition for Bough pieces now 90 years old - with no chips or cracks. A perfect pair of cups and saucers are quite hard to find - so this is reflected in my asking price. I have them priced at £35 for the cup and saucer. The side-plate with regret is not perfect but has a very small chip to the rim at the back which has been repaired. It is not immediately obvious - and certainly not visible on display. I have photographed the back of the side plate and taken a close-up image of the restored chip for you to assess. These are the left three images in the catalogue here.
Due to the condition of the side plate - I have priced it at only £10. This gives a grand total of £45 for the complete set.
Dimensions: The side plate is 7 inches in diameter. The cup is 2 3/4 inches high and with a diameter of 3 inches. The saucer has a diameter of 5 1/2 inches.
Bough Pottery was founded by Elizabeth and Richard Amour in the 1920s. They specialized in decorating blanks - which they bought in from pottery companies in England and Scotland (many from Maling Pottery, Newcastle).
