c.1870s Victorian Staffordshire Wash Set, Brownfield's Pottery

The W S Brownfield Pottery operated in the Staffordshire region of England from the mid 1800s until c.1905. This outstanding wash set has marks ranging from 1860 to another used 1871-1891. The pattern is called "Yesso", which we believe to be an Oriental or Japanese floral motif. The set includes a soap dish with lid, a toothbrush or razor holder, a pitcher, a bowl, a mug, and a huge slop jar with insert. The slop jar has a repair on the rim as pictured, otherwise there are no chips or cracks, just light crazing and a bit of loss to the mustard trim. The wash bowl has a tight hairline at the rim, and the mug has 2 tiny rim chips.

Dimensions:

Soap dish: 6 1/8" x 4 1/2"; the base is perforated for drainage.

Toothbrush or razor holder: 5 1/4" high with a 2 3/8" top opening; the interior bottom has a perforated disk (non-removable) about 1 1/2" up from the bottom for drainage.

Pitcher: 6" high and approximately 5 1/2" in diameter at its widest. Please note the pitcher has no spout.

Bowl: 10 3/8" top diameter, 3 1/2" high.

Mug: 3 1/4" high, base diameter 3 5/8".

Slop jar: 12" high with a top diameter of 8 1/2" and approximately 12" handle to handle.

The soap dish is marked with the Brownfield Trade Mark mark, used 1871-1891. The toothbrush holder and pitcher have only the impressed Brownfield's mark, dating to c. 1860. The slop jar has only the British Registry lozenge, and we cannot decipher the date.
