Caithness label on S&W's.

(1/5) > >>

keith:
Saw one of these yesterday with a Caithness label, the piece was quite cheap ( already have this one ) and the label was well stuck down, after looking up Caithness history I see they were bought up by Dartington in 2006, just wondered why they would stick a Caithness label on a Brierley / S&W's piece, seems a bit odd, ??? ??? ;D

chopin-liszt:

I would personally suspect the label was not applied in an official capacity.
This piece would surely predate Caithness - perhaps even the existence of Caithness?

keith:
Forgot about that  :-[ very old stock maybe ? trying to dig myself out here !

chopin-liszt:
I don't know the age of the S&W pieces, although I have a flared bowl myself.
Do you know the dates of these?

I saw two of these in as light blue colour today, different shapes of course.
