Buyer's Premium:

This collection of vintage decorative ceramics consists of multiple earthenware items, primarily in the style of mid-20th-century British cottage-ware. The lot includes three lidded storage canisters and a matching teapot featuring high-relief moulding in the form of timber-framed cottages with thatched roofs. The canisters are labelled with white plaques for Sugar and Tea, with a third label showing significant wear, likely identifying it as a coffee container. These pieces are characteristic of the Ye Olde Cottage pattern produced by makers such as Price & Kensington. Also included is a decorative teapot moulded as a basket filled with fruit, featuring a green pear, strawberries, oranges, and a lemon, with a large purple bow and matching handle. All pieces are constructed from glazed earthenware with hand-painted underglaze details.
