Vintage Arthur Wood Teapot and Matching Milk Creamer in a Gilt Pattern of Leaves and Spots on a Sunshine/Banana Yellow Glazed Background, in the Prince Shape
A possible impending house move has forced me into evaluating all the contents of my attic and some items will have to go, in my effort to downsize. I'm making progress but more items need to go! I'm moving on to some of my excess teapots now!
For sale here is a Fabulous Vintage Arthur Wood Teapot and Matching Milk Creamer in a Gilt Pattern of Leaves and Spots on a Sunshine/Banana Yellow Glazed Background, in the Prince Shape
Arthur Wood and Son Ltd, were an Earthenware manufacturer at the Bradwell Works, Davenport Street, Longport, Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent from 1928 to 2003. Previously as Arthur Wood - in 1924 his son Gerald Wood joined the business and in 1928 it was renamed to Arthur Wood & Son (Longport) Ltd.
The teapot and jug have a fabulous gilt pattern of leaves on a Sunshine/Banana yellow background glaze and the lid, handle and spout all have gilt details too. Very Elegant design on the Prince Shape. The Prince shaped teapot is what I would describe as an onion shaped teapot, as that is what it reminds me of!! The shape was used with a number of different designs, colours and patterns.
The teapot and jug are in very good vintage condition with no chips, cracks, crazing or pattern loss. There is very little rubbing to the gilt detailing. The teapot is a slightly paler shade of yellow than the jug, but they were purchased together. The teapot has been rarely used, I would imagine, certainly, it has only been on display since it came into my possession!
It stands roughly 6 inches/15 cm tall and holds 850ml/ 1.5 pints of tea.
Perfect for everyday use (it even has the tea leaves holes!) and a lovely addition to a teapot collection.
Use it for that special afternoon tea with the girls especially as part of a colourful mix and match theme.
Or have it on display in a cabinet or on a kitchen dresser.
