<p>[QUOTE="popsycat, post: 145870, member: 1904"]Coming from the north east of England, 60 years ago I used to see a lot of lustre pottery as so much was produced in the north east. Our neighbour had a beautiful pair of pink lustre splashed dogs on her mantlepiece. I always heard it referred to as "Sunderland lustre" by salerooms and antique dealers. That was the generic term for it. Times have changed and 60 years down the line people call it Staffordshire pink lustre. Whilst I am warbling, silver was always plate otherwise it was plated. I occasionally I had an old dealer in my shop asking If I had any plate. I knew they were trying to trip me up and expected me to point out the silver plated items.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
