Offered for sale is a Pink Luster Pitcher and Frog Cup Manufactured by Sunderland Pottery. Sunderland Lustreware is a type of pottery originating from Sunderland, England. Several potteries were located along the banks of the River Wear in Sunderland in the Nineteenth Century. Though many made everyday tableware, some of them made a distinct type which became known as Sunderland Lustreware. Indeed, similar pottery made in Tyneside (Newcastle upon Tyne and North Shields) and in Staffordshire also received this designation in later years. It is normally found in a pink form, but orange and other colours are also found. Typical pieces are religious plaques, and jugs featuring a design incorporating the bridge over the River Wear, or various heraldic - especially Masonic - devices. Most of the pieces available today were produced in Anthony Scott's Pottery in Southwick, Dawson's Pottery in Low Ford (now South Hylton), or at Dixon, Austin & Co. The pieces are in good to fair condition, with the pitcher showing a chip and hairline crack and the cup showing a broken handle(review photos). The pieces measure
