Description
A smaller vintage Hornsea (England) Muramic pin dish…
Designed by John Clappison, these were produced in the late 1970s – from the Lancaster Vitramic range from Hornsea.
The dish is a glossy olive green inside, with teal, and black and white, over Hornsea’s Muramic brown fine clay/pottery. Hand painted in rings of colour which have had a matchstick pulled through to give the pulled linear star effect. Stamped to the reverse with a gold logo which reads: “Muramic, Lancaster Vitramic, Hornsea England”. Matt dark brown base with a glossy white rim. Multi-use – these could be used for keys, coins, jewellery, pins, buttons, paperclips, etc – or perfect just for show.
The dish is just over 3″ wide, 8.5cm wide x 2.2cm tall.
Very good condition, one tiny rim nibble to the white enamel.
