A set of four Midwinter Pottery cups and saucers, circa 1970s to early 1980s vintage...
They are the Midwinter Stonehenge shape (base of cream with random iron oxide brown speckles/trim which is 'Creation') with the glossy Moon design - deep blue and lighter blue stripes. The design was by Eve Midwinter and it was launched in 1973 and produced until the mid 80s. Very retro and a design classic in one of the harder to find colour-ways.
Cups are a good sized 6.5cm tall x 8.7cm wide at the rim. Simple cylinder shapes. Hard to make out the base stamps; also stamped by the quality controllers' numbers. Very good - one has a subtle baseline chip, shown. They have no cutlery marks internally. No noticeable scratches to the print, no crazing. They hold about 250ml or 1 old-school 'cup'. All hardly touched. Due to the nature of the random glazes each piece is slightly different and unique with different speckles and stripes.
Saucers are 15.5cm wide and are plain Creation. All have the same base marks. Some fine marks to the saucers but no chips or crazing.
