A Portmeirion Phoenix Pattern Coffee Set by John Cuffley.
A set of fifteen ceramic coffee ware items manufactured by Portmeirion Pottery in Stoke-on-Trent, England. The set features a matte black glaze decorated with intricate silk-screened gold-tone transfers of a stylized phoenix bird. The lot comprises:
One cylindrical coffee pot featuring a high-arching handle, a long tapered spout, and a domed lid with a ball finial. The base bears a yellow adhesive label reading PHOENIX BY JOHN CUFFLEY PORTMEIRION POTTERY Stoke-on-Trent MADE IN ENGLAND.
Six coffee cups with angular handles. The bases feature a printed oval gold-tone mark reading PHOENIX PORTMEIRION MADE IN ENGLAND.
Six matching circular saucers with a matte black finish.
One cream jug with an integral spout and an angular handle, decorated with the phoenix motif.
One open cylindrical sugar bowl with the phoenix motif.
More Information
The set is in excellent vintage condition with no visible chips, cracks, or repairs to any of the ceramic bodies. The gold-tone transfers remain bright and largely intact across all pieces (photos 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 11). There is minor surface dust and residue present within the interior of the coffee pot (photo 15). Faint shelf wear and minor discolouration are visible on the unglazed white foot rings, particularly on the underside of the coffee pot lid (photo 14) and the base of the coffee pot (photo 16).
