A charming antique English stoneware dairy cream pot advertising Queen’s Dairy of Manningham, Bradford, featuring the proprietor’s name, Ralph Willingham.
Dating to approximately 1895–1915, this hard-to-find attractive advertising pot features a cream stoneware body with a rich brown glazed rim and black transfer printed lettering. Originally used by a local dairy to supply cream or milk in reusable containers, it is now a wonderful piece of Yorkshire advertising history.

This pot is in good condition with minor coloring and fade on the transfer, a thin hairline on the right side, and no chips.
These charming pots are a great neutral addition to your Antique English Advertising Pot collection. Please study the images as they represent the best description of the pot you will receive.
Most pots have some level of crazing, may have spots of discoloration, light hairline cracks and minor chips and fleabites that should be considered patina, additions to character and do not detract from its display value. These are expected due to age, use and the fact that they were often buried for decades before being dug up and rescued.
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.
Interestingly, this same daughter’s husbands job moved them to London were we have enjoyed visiting our grandchildren and traveling the countryside antiquing.
On our many visits we have became friends with many of the “diggers” excavating the ancient dumpsites all over the UK and now source thousands of pots from them every year. I still love the charm they add to every room they are placed in.
Returns are not excepted on these rare authentic pieces but please contact if you have any questions
