Found this today and it just had to come home with me. (Has been named the potty by him indoors)

It's quite large and weighs a ton. 8 inches wide (20 cm) and 5.5 inches (14 cm) deep

Royal Venton Ware made by J Steventon & Sons from Burslem, Stoke on Trent. This fabulous glaze is known as Mutton Crackle glaze. The factory operated from 1897-1936.

Here's a website on the factory and here is a gallery of Mutton Crackle ware

Factory seems to have produced a funny range of stuff, some of it's quite ordinary and some rather nice

That's a new name on me Christine. It's not my sort of thing but there's some interesting stuff on the site for sure. I've added it to the LINKS library as well. Good find!
