Dornoch Pottery Coffee Pot
Digital photograph of a vintage Dornoch Pottery Studio Coffee Pot with lid. The upper part is ribbed with a speckled beige and milky white overglaze and the bottom third is turquoise which was then re-dipped in a darker beige glaze revealing a line of aqua between the top and bottom contrasting beiges. The lid slots into a rim that holds it in place.
There is an artist's mark 'W' at the base of the handle - probably Alan Walker c.1960 - 1971
