Offering this Rare PURPLE COLORED Printed Horner’s Devonshire Clotted Cream Cylinder Pot. Clotted cream is a thick cream made by indirectly heating full-cream cow’s milk and allowing it to cool slowly. It’s a regional specialty of Devon and Cornwall, England. Horner’s was one of many dairies and provision merchants during the Victorian and Edwardian eras that distributed dairy products like clotted cream and cream cheese in ceramic pots. Very good condition with some light color spots, a few light hairline cracks as pictured on the front right size, and no chips. Please review the pictures for the best description. As you will see, the purple print remains very strong.

Measurements: 5” tall x 2 1/2” base diameter

This authentic antique advertising pot was 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 accepted on these rare authentic pieces but please contact if you have any questions
