Some of the most amazing pieces of pottery we have are the floor vases. Unfortunately, we just can’t keep them all as some of them are over 50cms. I’m getting quite excited about tomorrow now. So much so that I’m finding it difficult to concentrate on my work today. I’m ‘supposed’ to be writing an…

The Red, White and Blue Pottery for sale…
Not deliberately patriotic, but still a pretty impressive collection all the same. All of these pots are for sale on Saturday. Even if you can’t make it, enjoy the pottery porn!
More West German Pottery for Sale
So, as you probably know by now, on Saturday 27th August, we are holding our first ever open house sale on the West German Pottery. We’ve not added up how many pots we’ve got, but it’s a lot. A hell of a lot. Last night, we spent a long, long time sorting through everything, identifying…
Instant Scheurich Collection: For Sale!
The monumental task of photographing and pricing up all of the pots has begun. Here we have ten different versions of the iconic Scheurich 271 vase, designed by Heinz Siery. These are all priced between £10 and £15. We’re currently up to photographing the red, white and ’50s pottery – so keep checking back as…
West German Pottery Sale
On the spur of the moment (i.e., we realised just how much stuff we’d brought back from Germany this time and panicked!), we’ve decided to have a West German Pottery sale at our house this Saturday, 27th August. We’ll be throwing open the doors to our tiny terrace from 10 til 5. We live in…
More Retro-ness from Germany
Well, we are now back safe and sound in our little house in Glossop after a stonkingly good trip around Deutschland. It really is becoming a home away from home. In the last few days of our trip, we stayed near to Bremen, scouting out the retro and vintage goods around there and up to…
Guten Abend von Deutschland!
Apologies for misspellings, grammatical or semantic errors in the title! Aidan and I are currently in our home away from home a.k.a the Formule 1 hotel. Tonight we’re in Bremen, but so far we’ve stayed in Formule 1s in Bochum, Etaps near Hamburg and Lubeck and the Best Western in Bremen earlier in the week….
West German Pottery – The Latest Favourites
By the time you read this, we will be in Deutschland, hopefully on our way to collecting a car full of retro goodies! Whilst you (eagerly?) await our return, feast your eyes on some of my favourites from the last trip: Fingers crossed we come back with some equally as amazing stuff. ..
A Grey Day – The West German Pottery Way
Despite the title of this post, I’ve actually had two pretty good days, busy but productive. I’m referring to the weather with the title! Rain, drizzle, precipitation… whatever you want to call it; it has rained, rained and rained today. I left early yesterday morning with some gigantic parcels in tow to post before going to…
Sunshine and Lightness Here… Really
Not really, but I felt the need for some uplifting colours today. Not only has Britain gone a little bit crazy over the events of the past few days, the weather today is truly horrendous. Oddly though, it might be this rain that dampens down the rioting for today so fingers crossed that for once…
Daily Pottery Pic: Scheurich
I’m planning to do some Easter/Royal Wedding specials today and the rest of this week. However, as there is also a GIANT West German Pottery collection just itching to be posted up, I’ll put up a few pictures each day of the latest finds. I love this Scheurich glaze. It may not be ‘Fat Lava’ or even…
West German Pottery White Collection
We’ve had the brown collection. Now here’s the white collection: Many Scheurich pieces, a little Steuler (our first Cari Zalloni piece) and a cheeky little Wade who’s crept in somehow…
