The standalone \u003cem\u003eEngland\u003c\/em\u003e mark on the base of this Mason's coffee pot is not merely a country of origin — it is a date. Used by Mason's during the interwar period, it places this pot firmly in the late 1920s to late 1940s, making it a genuinely pre-war or wartime piece of British ironstone. In an era when so much is made to be replaced, this is a pot that was made to last — and has.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cem\u003eFruit Basket\u003c\/em\u003e pattern (C4818) is a vibrant, characteristically English transferware design: a colourful arrangement of fruit and foliage rendered on a warm cream ironstone body, finished with a hand-painted decorative finial and handle. The classic British coffee pot silhouette — tall, confident, and beautifully proportioned — makes this a considered addition to a Mason's collection or a striking centrepiece for a curated vintage table or kitchen shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mason's Patent Ironstone China, Made in England\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eFruit Basket\u003c\/em\u003e (C4818)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e Interwar period, c.1920s–1940s (confirmed by standalone \u003cem\u003eEngland\u003c\/em\u003e backstamp)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18.5cm tall | 17cm handle to spout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ironstone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery good vintage condition.
