$44.00
1 in stock
This antique brown-glazed stoneware pot was made for Woodhead’s Creamery of Southport, Lancashire, England. The front reads “WOODHEAD’S CREAMERY SOUTHPORT.”
Woodhead’s Creamery was an established Southport business operating during the Edwardian period, circa 1900–1910s.
Made from brown-glazed stoneware, the pot has a cylindrical body, stepped shoulder and narrower open neck. The creamery name was applied directly to the glazed body in dark lettering. Its construction reflects the reusable commercial containers employed by dairies and food businesses before disposable packaging became commonplace.
The pot is in very good condition with no chips or cracks.
Measures approximately 3” tall x 2″ at the widest point x 1 1/2″ base.
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 friends 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 doing serious 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.
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 excepted on these rare authentic pieces but please contact if you have any questions.
