Hi All
Can Anyone help with dentifying the era of this Jug/Vase I dont seem to be able to find the backstamp mentioned any where. It is Shorter And Son Ltd Made In England. It also has A Number 375 We think and Shorter England Embossed into the base. The back stamp is Egg Shape and Shorter And Son Ltd Made In England inside. This vase is very heavely crazed.
Thank You for any help

i cant find that shorter mark. but the decoration looks fairly late , 50's or 60's at a guess.

Hello,
According to 'The Shorter Connection" by Irene & Gordon Hopwood, this backstamp was introduced in 1933 & issued in either dark blue or black.
