@globalmuseum Looks like classy Denby from the 1960's, but better!

@globalmuseum Pottery from ancient days always fascinates me; I think of the hands, so long ago, that fashioned it, then later, daily used it. It's a connection to our human family from long ago.

@globalmuseum
But they look like something you'd buy today!

I'd suspect they might even be dishwasher proof (glazed, not cheap screenprint) and likely microwave oven proof too!

@globalmuseum someone should replicate these designs on modern day pottery. I would totally buy ceramic cups that looked like these. Dynamite classic Minoan design.
