Broadhurst English Scene Coffee Pot - Blue White Ironstone Transferware

Found this Broadhurst English Scene coffee pot and had to bring it home. That soft blue transferware river scene, the fisherman on the bank, a little boat drifting by, all wrapped under a floral scroll border, this is the kind of piece that makes a shelf feel like it has a story. Made by Broadhurst Ironstone in Staffordshire, England, circa 1950s-1960s. Backstamped The English Scene, underglaze, detergent and dishwasher proof. Tall coffee pot shape with a ribbed body and gently curved spout, this is the harder to find piece since coffee pots so often lose their lids over the decades. This one is complete. Measures 9.5 tall, 10 handle to spout tip, and 5.5 across the base. Condition is excellent structurally, no chips, no cracks, no repairs. You'll see fine crazing throughout the glaze, which is completely expected and part of the character of vintage ironstone this age. A light hand wash before use is all it needs. A gorgeous centerpiece for a cottagecore kitchen, a grandmillennial tablescape, or anyone building out a blue and white collection one good find at a time. Every piece has a past. Find yours. — Sarah / The Storied House Co.
