Description
Collectable Lord Nelson Pottery, vintage baby gift by Staffordshire Potteries featuring characters from Elijah Cotton bunnies stories. Very sweet 1950 / 60s bunny bowl decorated with a rabbit family at tea time. Heavy pottery with high raised edge, designed to be stable & for a toddler who is learning to feed themselves. This bowl is in good condition with crazed glaze & very slightly faded image - in line with age. The bowl has original vintage makers mark on the base. Elijah Cotton started his business in 1880 at the Lichfield Street Works, Eastwood, Hanley. He outgrew these works & in 1885 built the Nelson Pottery on the corner of Nelson Road & Commercial Road. This was a large work alongside the Caldon Canal, built on the site of older pottery, which was built well over 200 years ago, in 1758. Their jug production brought the company fame, making them one of the biggest jug manufacturers of the time.
