Lot details
A pink lustre and green transfer printed Garrison Pottery bowl, with various scenes and verses, including ''The Token'', ''Be wise then Christian'', ''The flag that's braved a thousand years (marked Dixon Phillips & Co., Sunderland) and a view of the ''levelled'' bridge. NB The Wear Bridge was reconstructed in 1857 to make it level, rather than its original arched profile. The Garrison Pottery closed in 1864, making the production of this bowl between the two dates. Some of the prints used on this bowl were bought by Scotts and used after the Garrison Pottery closed.
