One of the largest private collections of a little known Staffordshire pottery manufacturer is to be sold in Shrewsbury next week, and it is attracting interest from overseas.
The pair of H&R Daniel pot pourri vases valued at up to £700
Caroline Dennard, Halls Fine Art’s ceramics, glass and militaria specialist, said that the collection, which is expected to exceed £10,000, is attracting international interest, especially from American collectors.“It is undoubtedly one of the largest private collections of H&R Daniel porcelain and earthenware in existence, with many pieces illustrated in Michael's important book on the subject, published in 1980,” said Caroline.
Potential stars of the collection are a pair of H&R Daniel pot pourri vases which expected to fetch up to £700 and a pot pourri vase and cover and a rare fruit and flower basket, each estimated at up to £300. The auction catalogue introduction to the collection was written by Mr Berthoud’s son, Nicholas, who said English porcelain was one of his father’s three great loves, with the pots of Henry and Richard Daniel particular favourites.
