This is a listing for ONE antique Victorian tall slim two pound Dundee marmalade pot. A total of two are available to select from.

Both these are great clean examples of the slimmer version of the 2lb James Keiller advertising Dundee marmalade pots, dating from the turn of the 19th and 20th Centuries.

These white ironstone James Keiller Dundee marmalade jars were all handmade by Maling in the late Victorian period. The company produced their marmalade pots in a variety of sizes, and this is the taller slimmer 2 pound version.

As most pots were discarded at the time, they often have spots of discoloration, minor hairline cracks, minor chips and varying shades of crazing. However, this adds to their charm as highly decorative pieces. Considering the history of these pieces, the condition of these pots is excellent.

Both are in very good condition with no cracks or crazing. The right hand pot has a small knock to the base rim but otherwise there are no chips on these pieces. The transfer on them both is very clear but is bolder and deeper in colour on the pot on the right.

Commonly used to store kitchen utensils, they are also perfect for use as vases, plant pots or to store artists paintbrushes.
