Antique J. Sainsbury BLOATER PASTE Pot in the rarer larger size. Bloater paste” is fish paste made from bloaters—a kind of smoked herring that was popular in England, especially in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It was a staple of British working-class diets, often spread on bread or toast. It measures approximately 3″ tall x 2 1/4” diameter

Made of white ironstone with its original clear black underglazed transfer. It is in good condition with age colored crazing and no chips and one chip on the bottom front. Please view the images as your best description of the pot.

This is an authentic antique advertising pot sourced during my recent buying trip to England. I have been sourcing these wonderful antique pots for over 12 years from sources who are actually digging them up in ancient rubbish sites all over England. I purchased my first antique Advertising pot when my husband and I had the wonderful opportunity to live in England in the 1980’s. Our daughter was born there and we enjoyed living in England so much we often went back to visit after returning to the US.

On our many visits to the UK we have became friends with many of the “diggers” excavating the ancient dumpsites all over the UK. We now source thousands of pots from them every year to offer to our many individual customers as well as several boutique shops across the US. I still love the charm these antique pieces add to every room they are placed in.

Please study all images as they are the best representation of the actual item you will receive. These are scarce and getting harder and harder to source.

Returns are not accepted on these rare authentic pieces but please contact if you have any questions.
