English Vintage/Antique Brown Transferware Hexagon Shape Pitcher Asiatic Pheasant Butterfly
$79.99
Brand Maling
Here is a lovely brown transferware pitcher with a unique hexagon shape. The pattern is very much like Asiatic Pheasants, which was produced by a slew of English potters, and depicts pheasants and butterflies amongst a bouquet of flowers such as peonies and roses.

The Maling potteries were in business from 1762 to 1963 and claimed, at one time, to be the largest pottery in the world.
The stamp on this teapot was in use by Maling between 1920 and 1963 when the factory closed. There are some variations of this stamp, including the words 'Made In England' which will always indicate that a piece was made after 1921.
