A festive vintage Myott Staffordshire Cambridge Old England Ironstone large tureen with its lid, would look stunning on the Christmas table. It's in excellent condition with printed backstamp and makes a charming planter as well a functional piece as well. 
 
Myott, Son & Co. Ltd. operated originally from the Alexander Pottery in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, in the North of England. It was a family run business producing earthenware from 1898. Run by two brothers, Ashley and Sydney Myott (Ashley Myott is pictured above), the company soon had to expand to meet growing demand moving to  Upper Hanley Pottery in 1925.
 
Planted with Hellebores or Lenten Roses for that added festive touch, this would make a delightful gift for someone special. Carefully packaged with a personalised card, provenance and plant care instructions, this is shipped overnight with couriers with the option of gift wrapping.
