Name: Lands end
 
Type: None
 
Year: Registered in 1965, United Kingdom
 
Set: No
 
Mark: None - Likely produced by Crown Devon or a similar Staffordshire potter
 
History: This is a novelty souvenir jug or creamer in the shape of a small teapot, featuring a classic pixie motif often used in mid-20th century English holidayware. The inscription “Lands End Good Luck” marks it as a tourist keepsake from the famous Cornish landmark. The Registry Number 904229 confirms the design was officially registered in the UK in 1965, situating this piece squarely in the mid-century souvenir boom when domestic travel and whimsical ceramics were extremely popular.
 
 
The textured body, bright glaze, and molded figural design are characteristic of Staffordshire potteries such as Crown Devon or SylvaC, though no specific maker’s mark is present. The glaze shows signs of crazing (fine crackle lines in the glaze), which is typical for age and does not necessarily affect structural integrity unless deep.
 
 
Pixie and gnome-themed ceramics were widely produced during this time and are especially collectible among novelty and British holidayware enthusiasts. The relatively good condition and readable registration number help its appeal.
 
Flaws: None
