Topic: Possible Angus and Greener, Sunderland Creamer

[Stuart71]

Hi, I bought a little jug at a car boot this morning but have struggled to read the lozenge as it is inside the bowl.

It appears to read, 17, X, D, 5 which would be Angus and Greener 17/9/1868.

Does anybody know if this attribution matches the images attached?

Many Thanks

Your attribution is perfectly correct - your creamer is indeed by Angus & Greener, from their RD 221689 of 17 September 1868 – Parcel 5.

The design representation was actually for a sugar basin, already shown and discussed at
http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,60520.msg341407.html#msg341407
but the unique feature of the design was obviously for the decorative surface pattern rather than the shape.

I have no previous photo record of a creamer from this design, so I wonder if I might have permission to add a copy of your photos to the GlassGallery GMB RD database, please.

Fred.

Thanks for the confirmation and extra information, I'm glad it is of interest and you are welcome to copy the image,

Thanks again, Stuart
