New Hall Pottery Co, operations began 1899~1900 at the New Hall Works, located at Hanley, Stoke-On-Trent. The pottery works had a visit from King George V and Queen Mary in 1913, indicating that the pottery had established quite a reputation however it was primarily for toilet sets, not tea and breakfast ware at that time. The market for toilet sets was declining and the company focused on trinkets, jugs and tea/breakfast ware.

These pieces are from their breakfast ware range - we had the complete set of plates and bowls but they have now all found new homes.

 

DLAT RATING: 9/10 (Darling Look At This) Based on the pure simplicity of design and ease of looking "good" in any colour setting.

 

At the time of this advertisement we have the complete trio available but due to requests we receive from buyers, we have advertised this trio as three separate items - this provides the maximum flexibility for someone who doesn't need the complete trio.

NEW HALL POTTERY CO. (Hanley, Stoke-On-Trent) UK - Teacup ONLY

Circa 1930 ~ 1951 (confirming by the Green backstamp used)

Opaque China (meaning you cannot see "shadows" through the china if held to the light)

Teacup Standard teacup

Pattern: Unknown name or number

Shape: Traditional teacup with "standard" handle

Design is a cream all over finish with a high lustre glaze. No artwork however textured (like a feathering) china around the base of the teacup. This texture looks so much like the famous Belleek chinaware designs from Ireland.

Gold gilding has been hand applied INSIDE the teacup (not the rim) and on all three sides of the handle.

Sophisticated simplicity is the concept here, you may even call these "plain"! It is breakfast or afternoon tea taking time after all so just an nice "calm" cup of tea was the order of the day. New Hall were not limited to this sort of concept but in fact produced a wide range of highly decorated designs, look at this vase from the same period ...

CONDITION:

I have two of the teacups left ... both are in practically identical condition with an differences noted below

Clean externally

Clean bowl - no tannin stains

NO cracks *** see a special note below reference ONE cup though

NO fleabites

NO discolouration or unsightly markings

NO crazing (carefully examined both dry and wet techniques - no crazing observed at all)

Gold gilding is in very good condition on the inside of the cup and all three sides of the handle - solid gilding without any wear showing

*** ONE cup only, underneath on the base there is something like a "cut" mark into the china. It is not a crack but a flaw none-the-less, examined carefully for any marks on the INSIDE of the cup and there is nothing at all.

I must emphasis that this cut or mark is not truly significant but if a buyer has a preference, PLEASE let me know when purchasing.

Condition exactly as described Non-returnable used product
