Pair of Vintage Very Fine Staffordshire England Porcelain Water Pitchers Jugs Hand Painted, Signed 14 ½" x 9 ½". In very good vintage condition, no cracks, flakes, chips, breakage or repairs.

All hand hand made, painted, fired and signed by artist Blackman See (photo # 7). 18K gold, handles, encircled trim at lips and encircling bottom bowels. Lovely painting of flowers, buds, leaves, grapes and berries. Marked on bottom (see photos). Don't know when they were made- probably from the 40s to 50s (in Staffordshire England).

Beautiful shapes, painting and colors (assortment of pinks, greens, purples and blues). Info on Staffordshire England pottery. Backstamps on Staffordshire pottery changed over the years and help identify the time range of manufacture. Pottery produced after 1884 includes a registration number.

The word "England" appears on the backstamp after 1891, added due to a change in tariff laws. "Made in England" appears on the backstamp after World War I, and the pattern name appears after 1810. Other identifying marks include trademarks, and an extra shield appears in pieces produced during or after the 19th century. Staffordshire refers to an area in England where pottery production began in the early 1700s due to the availability of Devonshire clay in the area, used in the production of pottery and porcelain. Many different companies produced pottery in this area. I don't try to clean of touch up items for sale. I include high resolution pictures of each item for you to examine (use the magnifying tool).
