A vintage Moorcroft pin dish in the Pansy design.
The diameter of the pin dish is 117mm and the height 18mm.
In excellent vintage condition.
Regarding age it can be difficult to assess with absolute certainty as it was not until 1990 that Moorcroft began using year cyphers to show when an item was actually made.
As a there is no year cypher on the dish the latest possible date of manufacture should be 1989 but also the impressed MOORCROFT and MADE IN ENGLAND backstamps and their positioning suggest a date range c1949 to 1986.
The pin dish is clearly of genuine vintage age.
A very lovely item which should prove a worthy addition to many a collection of vintage Moorcroft pottery.
This pin dish in the Pansy pattern is available online only however if visiting the Antiques Centre in York please visit Cabinet 138 situated on the Lower Ground Floor to view other items of Moorcroft Pottery from early vintage pieces to more modern examples.
