One of the wonderful items always in stock in Ware are the 1950s range of contemporary vases. Hereā€™s a group from my private collection on a new to me ā€˜giraffeā€™ low shelving unit. They are sky blue and most unusually moonstone grey. The quality of the shelving is sublime and now Iā€™m looking for an original tall versionā€¦ DM if you know of one! šŸ˜‚

To me the particular charm of this Beswick dove is the warm white glaze. It makes such a statement. Designed by Kathi Urbach it is a sublime piece and now for sale in Ware.

What a stunner! Complete, undamaged and Iā€™d say unused early 1950s hand painted dessert service. The hand painted motifs were from 1930s designed, slightly freshened up for the modern 50s. A rare opportunity to acquire a complete set for use or a stunning wall / dresser display. Come and see it in Ware- it wonā€™t disappoint. Feel free to drop me a message if youā€™d like further details. There wonā€™t be another any time soon! šŸ˜‚

Maybe not an ā€˜A listā€™ pattern but certainly has a lot of charm and sits well on the distinctive shape. Totally functional too!

One of the really unusual shapes designed in the 1950s - really wonderful lines and angles and a less often seen colour combination of lime yellow and seagull. Would look great above the fireplace or full of fruit on the kitchen tableā€¦

Werenā€™t wall pockets a great alternative to vases? This Poole pottery one is glazed in seagull and peach bloom and would look even more stunning holding a small spray.

How can these patterns NOT put a smile on your face? šŸ˜€. Brighten up any kitchen and make a statement.
