PORTMEIRION WELSH DRESSER .5 PINT STAFFORDSHIRE JUG
Seldom Seen - Overall Excellent Condition - Small Transfer Flaw

I am pleased to offer a very rare small half pint Staffordshire pitcher or cream jug in the Portmeirion Welsh Dresser pattern.

The staffordshire shape pitcher is in excellent shiny and clean condition with no sign of use or wear. There is a small minor transfer flaw in one flower bud so there is an oval 2nds ID mark on the bottom. Otherwise, the pitcher is in perfect condition. Please be sure to look below for a full description and photos.

Portmeirion Welsh Dresser Pitcher
---> Pitcher <---

This pattern, designed by Angharad Menna, emulates old Llanelli Ware. Produced for 100 years, but unable to compete with other potters, Llanelli Ware stopped production in the early 1900's. Portmeiron's Welch Dresser is a continuation of this art.

The same design is present on both sides of the pitcher.
