MJ's little flock

[MaryJanet]

How cute is this little friend of mine. She stood there for fifteen minutes, just keeping company because she's a darling.

It looks like a museum piece. Does it have markings or astamp?

It does. There is a signature on the base and the word 'quimper' which is a pottery in Brittany.
The pot itself is a Breton pattern apparently. I've been asking my elder sister a bit about it recently. She thinks out mother bought it in 1952.

Lovely! Is that a stylised peacock? Absolutely beautiful! I can't believe your dad threw it out.

He threw out, or other wise got rid of a lot of nice things.

What a shame. I had the opposite problem, a father who kept everything.

I wonder if her night vision is better than her chums.

I'm sure I'll be forgiven for a slight deviation from tea to coffee and cups to pots.
This got thrown out by my father many years ago and in the process got broken. I know, difficult to understand.
I rescued it and glued it back together as best I could. While it is no longer fit for holding coffee, I'm rather fond of it. It's a genuine Breton pot and I think it's older than I am.
