Denby "Cottage Blue"

Denby Cottage Blue is one of the earliest of the tableware ranges produced by Denby Pottery. First issued in 1926, it originally consisted of oven to tableware pieces. The range was expanded shortly after to include pouring ware and later dinner, tea and coffee services. It was one of the most popular ranges and is still very collectible today, especially earlier pieces. It features a rich mottled blue glaze with a yellow interior which over the years has ranged from a a deep mustard yellow to a lighter creamy custard yellow. Due to the softness of the glaze, plates in Excellent condition are especially hard to come by.
