SOLD This is an early piece of Cinque Ports pottery - we can date this specifically to the early 1960's because of the backstamp. This was made after 1960 when they added the plural 'S' to Cinque Port but before 1964 when former Rye Pottery employee David Sharp and his friend George Gray, who founded the pottery together in 1956, split up and it was moved to The Monastery (under George Gray's management) with production from that point on being marked as such on the backstamp. It is an extremely large and decorative tankard in the highly collectable and sought after stripes - a white ground hand painted with yellow and black lines. Marked to the base with 'CINQUE PORTS POTTERY, RYE SUSSEX, ENGLAND' and a hand written code 'R26'. A gorgeous piece of retro British studio pottery. Please see all photographs for alternative views and close-ups. SIZE: Height 7.5in/19.5cm Rim 3in/8cm Weight 448g (07/35)
