Antique Gray & Sons Stoneware Pot – Portobello, c. Late 19th Century

This charming antique stoneware pot is stamped "GRAY & SONS PATENT PORTOBELLO", referencing the well-known pottery works in Portobello, Scotland, active during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. With its softly rounded cylindrical form, creamy off-white glaze, and tactile aged patina, it’s a timeless piece that embodies rustic British utility ware.

Originally used for food storage or ointments, it now makes a wonderful decorative accent for styling shelves, tables, or vignettes. Its minimalist silhouette and natural wear lend authenticity and warmth to vintage, farmhouse, or wabi-sabi interiors.

Styled here with seasonal florals, this Scottish stoneware jar is a versatile piece perfect for adding antique character to your home.
