Jersey Pottery shallow dish with Sgraffito fish design in black and white 10.5cm diameter 

The Jersey Pottery was founded in 1946 by Charles and Edward Potter, who realised that despite a ban on the production of decorative ceramics throughout the Second World War in Britain, this law didn’t apply in Jersey. This loophole helped the business get off to a good start, but by the time these restrictions had been lifted in Britain in the 1950s, this increase in competition caused the business to start running at a loss.

The business was then sold to Clive and Jessie Jones in 1954. With the help of their daughter, Carol, they transformed the company by marketing the wares to the increasing number of tourists who were visiting the island. They opened up the factory to visitors, who were able to watch the items being made.

Just a small nibble to the rim - difficult to see but can be felt
