Seconds Moonpenny JU5 Jug

Often found growing in swathes along field edges, daisies are just as at home in traditional hay meadows. The well-known white flowers are easy to identify and are a common wildflower to discover during the warmer months from June to September. Their tiny yellow centres can appear so bright that they appear to 'glow' in the evening, hence their other names being 'moon daisy' and 'moonpenny'.

Nicola has added to her design soft, golden dandelions, around which bees dance and dart. Ornate orange butterflies hover overhead, their delicate wings interlaced with an intricate black pattern and covered in myriad white dots.

Once a common part of everyday life, meadows and flower-rich grasslands have sadly almost entirely disappeared. It is estimated that 97% or 7.5 million acres have been lost since the 1930s but in Moonpenny the summer meadow is still in full bloom and very much alive with the creatures that make this idyll their home.

What is a Moorcroft second? All our art pottery is closely inspected before it leaves the Moorcroft factory and the selection process is as rigorous as any in the world. As a result, not all pieces emerge unblemished in their quality assessment. The fault or faults may be in the finish of a piece, whether it be a tiny tubeline miss, an incorrectly painted petal, or a small glaze run. Seconds are not ‘red-dotted’, all of them are far too good for that, and each seconds piece has a charm and individuality of its own. Any fault is not structural and the piece can still be used for the purpose it was made.
