ROYALTY.
1.Superb Queen Victoria jug to celebrate the 60th year of her reign in 1897.There
are 2 printed sides,and there is no damage. A scarce item as the years pass
by,but Queen Victoria and pre WW2 Royalty items are making a huge comeback,
we notice this more than many due to our trading circle.These items also make
a good investment if chosen wisely. £75.
2.Beautiful Doulton Queen Victoria Commemorative mug in blue and white transfer.There
is a lot of information on this mug,it was presented in 1897 by the Mayor
of Grimsby.Even then Royal Doulton was expensive,so perhaps only the Mayors
favourites were given one each of these.Lovely clear mark underneath,the usual
high Royal Doulton Standard. £95.
3.Superb mug designed by the Art Deco doyen of the day Dame Laura Knight.We
have been very lucky recently,inasmuch as we have acquired 2 of these rare
mugs,one already listed for King George the 6th.. Now we offer this slightly
rarer mug for King Edward the 8th (notice the past tense) who abdicated to
marry Wallis Simpson the American divorcee.This rocked the British throne
to it's roots,as Edward the 8th (formerly the then Prince of Wales) was always
very popular with the ladies and he could have married any one of many unattached
European Princesses.He was very handsome and it was once said that he was
the Worlds most eligible bachelor.A sad but true story.Did Wallis do right
by him? it seems she led a fast and racey lifestyle post marrying the ex King,
so it appears that she never changed... This mug for sale at £99
4.This is a most delightful small glass plate to celebrate Queen Victorias
Golden Jubilee in 1887.It is oval in shape and is about 7inches long.The condition
is excellent,a little gem and rare.. £65.

in 1887. A dear little plate in great condition,no damage at all,just perfect.

have seen plates so stained through drawing up the oils in the varnish of
the dressers,also absorbing the chimney and cooking smoke,depending on the
siting of the dresser.Some Gaudy welsh was kept behind glass so you would
not see this on those items.However a lovely primitive item in good condition.£48..

rose etc.One thing I have noticed on these mugs is that they never include
the Welsh National Emblem of the Daffodil or leek.I suppose the Royals - who
"give" their eldest sons to Wales connects dircetly to the old Tudor

SWANSEA
1.Cambrian childs plates.Matching pair of pink lustre plates made in the great
Cambrian pottery,Swansea.The plates were made in c1820,the pink lustre was
probably applied by John Harries or "Old Harris" as E.Morton Nance
refers to him in his masterpiece on Swansea and Nantgarw,so obviously he worked
in the lustre paintshop for quite some years.There is a Capital "S"
imprressed in the rear of one plate.The only fault is a very small edge slither,hardly
noticeable.£89 the pair.
2.Cambrian pottery childs plate with a pink lustre pattern,the border showing
the impressed daisy pattern.The lustre probably applied by Old Harris in 1820's
who was the main lustre painter,although children were also working in the
pottery,and this may account for the slap dash way most of these plates were
decorated with.Made in 1820 -30.Excellent condition. £55

made in the Ynysmedw pottery c 1850 period.Ynysmedw is becoming very collectable

of Shards excavated from the old site of the original pottery.This plate shows
the "Fern and Flower Stalk" moulded edge pattern,and it is in very
good condition.£70

the Vicotrian crown.The pattern name, in a cartouche, is HongKong.At this
time c1840's to Mid Victorian, there was an inordinate amount of interest

holder. £118 the pair post free.

tall,this jug would look sensational on display.The condition is very good,
a beautiful antique.£145 + post

3.Ancient YNYSMEDW jugs.Splendid pair of Ynysmedw jugs,this famous little
pottery that was situated in the Upper Swansea valley.Ynysmedw pottery has

Pottery.It has been found that this Pottery produced some really good transfer
patterned wares,as good in quality and glaze,as many of the best Staffordshire
potteries.Neither jug is marked,but we have previously bought jugs of this
style and shape that were stamped YMP.The pattern is of course one of the
sheet patterns of sea weed or Hawthorn familiar to the Welsh Potteries.Both
jugs were bought from a private collector of Welsh pottery who is now dispersing
the collection.7-8inches tall,c1850 and both in good condition.There is a

SWANSEA
1.Ancient YNYSMEDW JUGS. A splendid pair of Ynysmedw jugs dateing c1850.Ynysmedw
as all Welsh pottery collectors know is now as sought after as the Great Cambrian,Glamorgan
or Llanelly potteries.Both jugs came from a private collector who is dispersing
the collection accumulated over many years..The patterns are the sheet patterns
such as the Hawthorn or sea weed..There is no backstamp but we have bought
very similar jugs in the past and they were stamped YMP.There is no doubt
in our minds as to the origins of these lovely jugs.Measuring 7-8inches tall,having
had no restoration at all,the only fault being a very minor ancient surface
inner chip.£100 each jug.VERY RARE!
SILVERWARE
1.Heavy pair of ancient Mid Victorian Brass Candlesticks showing the attractive
Beehive pattern.These are a solid quality pair standing nearly 11inches tall.c1850,made
in England. £75 the pair.A good buy.
2.Sweet pair of of Mid Victorian Brass candlesticks in really nice condition,measuring
8inches tall £45 the pair
3.Sturdy pair of Mid Victorian candlesticks measuring 9inches tall.Candlesticks
were very important in days gone by as the only real source of light.Almost
unimaginable by todays standards, as we only have to switch on an electric
light! - The vast amount of work entailed in keeping the candlewicks trimmed,the
sticks polished bright and shining would have taken hours and hours,but, every
good housekeeper ensured that these laborious chores were done daily to ensure
that their cottages were as clean and bright as possible. These candlesticks
£48 the pair
4..Another nice set of the old Beehive pattern,again Mid Vicotrian and measuring
10inches tall.There is a small hole in one of these sticks but it is not noticeable.Really
nice pair for £65
5.Late Georgian to Early Victorian c1820,more squat in shape than the usual
Victorian ones,measuring 8inches tall,there is a slight fault on the lip of
one of these,but it looks a "rustic" passible fault.£45
6..One single stick that is very sturdy and measures nearly 11 inches tall.Super
condition £43
7.One single little sweetie that is just 6 inches tall.. £23
