For obvious reasons the Royal Doulton 'Norfolk' pattern is avidly collected in East Anglia.
After acquiring the dinner plates and the soup bowls, it is rare
forms everyone wants and Suffolk auctioneers Diamond
Mills (10% buyer's premium) of Felixstowe could offer two
chamber pots on March 23.
The example in the commonly seen blue and white pattern soared
away to sell for £540 while the following lot, a slightly rarer
jerry printed with the same design in red sold to the same buyer at
£640. Apparently, the less successful red-printed Norfolk
was only produced in Burslem for a short period of perhaps six
months.
