Know before you buy
No, the Mayflower pattern was discontinued by Denby/Langley Pottery in 1982. Each piece available today is a vintage item from that original production era.
No, these pieces are not microwave, dishwasher, oven, or freezer safe. Because this is vintage stoneware, we recommend hand washing only to preserve the integrity of the floral design and ceramic material.
The fruit/dessert bowl measures 5 7/8 inches in diameter and features a traditional bowl shape. The tea tile is 7 inches in diameter and is designed as a flat surface, typically used to protect tables from hot teapots or mugs.
No, these Mayflower bowls are not designed to be stackable. You should store them individually to prevent chipping or scratching the vintage glaze.
The collection is crafted from durable stoneware, a type of ceramic known for its strength and weight. This material provides the sturdy, rustic feel characteristic of Denby/Langley pottery from that period.
