Early Bourne Denby England Hot Water Pot with Lid

Pottery : Stoneware : Denby : England : Pitcher

 

This is a very early stoneware pottery hot water pot circa 1915-1930’s. The bottom of the pot is marked in straight stenciled lettering “Bourne Denby” with a letter E incised towards the center bottom. The jug measures 6 ½ inches in height without the lid. It measures 5 inches in width including the handle and pouring spout. There are small holes for straining between the spout and pitcher. The pot is in excellent condition with minor manufacturer and glaze abnormalities. There is a lid present. Unfortunately there is a chip on the underside of the lid on one side with a rough edge present on the other side. The chip can be seen in the pictures. The Denby Pottery factory was started by the Bourne family in 1809.
