thrift of the day

I have had a lovely couple of days out in the sticks this week, staying with friends.

I did not go looking for vintage treasures.

So imagine my surprise when we happened to visit a little house in the middle of nowhere – that turned out to be a cafe and charity shop!

You may be familiar with my love of Hornsea Pottery.

I caught sight of this gorgeous Hornsea mug – and it was love at first sight.

It looks to me like a mid-1960s Clappison design, but I have never come across this pattern before. It would be wonderful if anyone can further enlighten me.

Lovely!
