A Rare Early Wm Moorcroft Pomegranate Pattern Tea Pot. C1914, Burslem

  

For sale today we have this rare example of a William Moorcroft Pomegranate Tea Pot. A seldom seen shape, the high looping handle Tea Pot is very well decorated to it's exterior with a band of large ripe pomegranate fruits (2 cut to show seeds) along with an abundance of berries and. Veined foliage set against a greeny ochre ground.

The lid is further decorated with berries and leaves. Measures 8" spout to back x 8" tall.

Some condition issues but still looks beautiful on display and is priced accordingly!
