Side view (but a bit dark)...


Lip detail

Better side view (maybe this summer I will spend some time learning how to really use my caneral)


Handle detail

Ahh Govancroft - We are not as proud of it's heritage as we could be here in Scotland - but they produced some nice stuff - shown is a art deco lustre ware jug or vase I have - shows it was not all thistles and posey holders.

Found some more of this while antiquing this weekend. Hope to pick it up in a few weeks.
