EXTREMELY RARE EARLY COMPTON POTTERY COMMEMORATIVE. GEORGE V CORONATION MUG. This is quite a rare early Mary Watts / Compton Pottery commemorative mug designed at the Compton factory’s (Gilford)’Potters’ Arts Guild’ and dates, I would guess, to the 1911 Coronation of King George V. It is depicted in a mottled grey typical mug form with relief images of the’G M G’ monogram around its girth, flanked by the Rose, Shamrock, Thistle, and Leek. Above and below are banded relief images of the Fleur-De-Lis and the coronation date respectively. Below the rim is the Latin inscription’Foy Roy Loy’ (“One King, Faith, Law”), and behind the ornate handle is’Compton Surry’. The base has the impressed Compton’PAG’ pottery mark – see photographs and details. It measures 4 3/4″ (12cm) (base to handle tip) x 3 3/4″ (9.5cm) W approx; and is in excellent condition for this type of ware with only tiny scuffs / glaze flakes to the rim to report (and I’m not sure they are not original as they look to be underglaze) – again see photographs and details. This is a wonderful rare early period Compton pottery Royal Commemorative which is in great condition and with a realistic, yet still low start price should get considerable interest from all collectors.

Extremely Rare Large Green Uranium Glass Cambridge Melon Boy from the Depression Era 1920/30’s. This is a large heavy Uranium Glass Melon Boy Figurine with a built in flower frog. It was made by the Cambridge Glass Company in the Depression Era. This figural flower frog is almost 100 years old. Some call it a Water Melon Boy because he has a melon between his legs and he is holding a bowl with a pattern around the bowl. The chubby boy is standing naked. He is absolutely gorgeous in this condition. There are air bubbles and smooth mould lines from the glass making process typical for glass made in the Depression Era. There is one small crack near one of the flower holes of the built in Flower frog. There is one small flat smooth chip near one of the flower holes and another two small nibbles near two other flower holes. All these are on the outside edge of the flower frog. There are no cracks in the Figurine itself. The figurine stands almost 10 inches. The flower frog measures 5.5 inches. Across at the bottom. He flower frog is 1.5 inches. It weighs 2.3 kgs or just over 5 pounds. The figurine is made of thick glass and is very heavy. This rare Melon Boy has been in my collection for a long time, but now some one else can enjoy him. Don’t come up in any colour. The uranium colour is very very scarce. Have a look at all the photos to see the lovely colour and condition. Some of the photos have been taken under a black light so you can see how it glows like crazy. I know what it is like to get broken items and feel bitterly disappointed when they are not wrapped properly. I will double box this lovely green uranium glass. Melon Boy figurine flower frog. To protect it, and make sure you get him in the same beautiful condition he is in now.

Made by Philip Carpenter in the early 1800’s. Dr Brewster’s patented. Unfortunately isn’t in the best condition anymore and will need some work to get it back up to its former glory. The black coating has mostly come away and there is damage to the glass. Please see all photos for condition.
