This is a really funky ceramic tile - could be used as a trivet - in fabulously bright and splashy orange and yellowy brown gloss glazes on a white ground and dating from the 1960's or thereabouts and, we believe, designed by Alan Wallwork. It is marked to the base with 'H & R JOHNSON LTD CRISTAL MADE IN ENGLAND' - absolutely brilliant!

This is a very pretty little cube shaped moneybox decorated to two opposites sides (the other two sides are plain) with a psychedelic transfer design to represent the astrological sign 'Taurus' and dating from the late 1960s or thereabouts. At the moment we have no firm attribution for this moneybox (it's unmarked to the base) but are currently leaning towards Carlton Ware because of the general look and feel of the piece (Carlton Ware often didn't mark smaller items like moneyboxes and cruets). Please see all photographs for alternative views and close-ups.
SIZE: Height 3.25in/8cm Weight 250g
