Featured Milton ? majolica ewers

Hi all

Found these, really liked the glaze on em

A quick search and found one quite similar stating Milton potteries from New Zealand (never heard of them before)

Any ideas if the pottery on them looks right for Milton

Any thoughts appreciated

 

Ewers, yes. Majolica? I'm not seeing it.

 

Yeah, I don't know for sure that they are Milton, that's just how the link describes them

But the Milton potteries were known for their majolica

If you take one apart, it's possible there will be a mark on the ceramic portion, but that's far from a sure thing. Lots of companies used flambe glazes.

 

You have a number and a possible mark (V?) underneath. Needs a cleanup! Don't think it's Milton though.

 

Thank m+m

The bottom diameter is very small, basically just bigger than than the hole

Your right there are numbers 789 on both

The v part is just a bend in the metal spacer though

 

Those are from a clock garniture. I'd have thought French or Belgian. Not majolica.

 

Thanks obb,

I forgot to mention that they are not functioning ewers just decorational, so that would make sense

About the right size for that as well

 

That glaze looks very Belgian, doesn't it. Love it.
