Young’s Morecambe Potted Shrimps English Advertising Pot -Great Crazing, c. 1900

Description: This is a listing for one (1) Young’s Morecambe Potted Shrimp English Advertising Pot. Around the turn of the century, this charming pot held brown shrimps only found in a few areas of the British coastline, with one of the most productive area being Morecambe bay. This pot is in good condition with no chips and just outstanding age coloring and crazing. It would be a standout in your collection. Measures Approximately 3 1/2 ” diameter x 1 1/2” tall Please consider the images as the best part of my description. Most pots have some level of crazing, may have spots of discoloration, light hairline cracks and minor chips and fleabites that should be considered patina, additions to character and do not detract from its display value. These are expected due to age, use and let's not forget they were often buried for decades before being dug up and rescued. I picked up these wonderful and rare sized mini pots on this last trip to England from one of my sources. All are in very good age appropriate condition as you can see when you study all images as they are the best representation of the actual item you will receive. These are scarce pots and getting harder and harder to source. Crazing and other signs of burial can be expected and add to the charm of these antique pots. This is an authentic antique advertising pot sourced during my recent buying trip to England. I have been sourcing these wonderful antique pots for over 10 years from sources who are actually digging them up in ancient rubbish sites all over England. I purchased my first antique Advertising pot when my husband and I had the wonderful opportunity to live in England in the 1980’s. Our daughter was born there and we enjoyed living in England so much we often went back to visit after returning to the US. Interestingly, this same daughter’s husbands job moved them to London were we have enjoyed visiting our grandchildren and traveling the countryside antiquing. On our many visits we have became friends with many of the “diggers” excavating the ancient dumpsites all over the UK and now source thousands of pots from them every year. I still love the charm they add to every room they are placed in.
