Price Brothers, ELEPHANT. Vintage.

A lovely example of a Price Brothers Elephant. If you Know Price Brothers items you will know they are very basic but there is an attraction to the naivety of there pieces. A great piece for the collector as they come round so infrequently especially painted like this. very similar to Sylvac style as you will see from photo taken from a Sylvac companion book.


Height 4 1/2”. Length 6 1/2.

A lovely present for the Price brothers collector.


Earthenware manufacturer at the Top Bridge Pottery, Longport, Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent.
The pottery manufacturing companies of Price Bros. (Burslem) Ltd and Kensington Pottery Ltd were both subsidiaries of Arthur Wood & Son (Longport) Ltd.

In January 1962 they were amalgamated to make one company: Price & Kensington Potteries Ltd. which operated from the Longport works that Price Brothers already occupied.

From 1962 to 2003 Price & Kensington were prolific manufacturers of everyday earthenware, tea and coffee sets, novelties and souvenirs. Up to 2003 all the ware was made in England.

In October 2003 the Arthur Wood Group, which included Price and Kensington, went into administration due to financial dfficulty. Shortly afterwards the brand names of Arthur Wood, Price & Kensington and Pristine were sold to Rayware, a houseware importer. It was also announced that manufacturer of this ware would be moved abroad.

The name Price & Kensington still continues as part of the Rayware Group - manufacture is abroad, typically China.

No chips, cracks or hairlines. Small crazing to be expected at this age and acceptable.
