This is a high-quality lead crystal preserve pot and matching spoon, designed by Frank Thrower in 1971 for Dartington Glass.
The pot is roughly capstan-shaped, with a galleried rim, which narrows into a cylindrical body before widening out again at the thickened, discoid base. The latter is plain and unmarked.
The lid is domed, with a further central domed knop. There is an elongated notch out of the edge of the rim for the spoon handle. The notch is ground matte around the edge.
The glass spoon that accompanies the pot is made from a single length of glass, widening out before being crimped to give the flattened bowl.
This piece has the pattern number FT123 and was advertised as being suitable for jam, marmalade, or honey.
It has a maximum height (including the lid) of approximately 12.0cm, and a height excluding the lid of about 7.8cm. It has a diameter across the rim of 9.9cm and across the base of about 9.8cm. The spoon has a length of 13.0cm.
It has an unwrapped weight of 580g.
They are in excellent condition, with no chips or cracks, although there are a few enclosed bubbles within the glass, which is to be expected with handmade pieces.
