Large (the largest size they did) Compton Pottery Arts & Crafts terracotta scroll pot/planter; early 20thC.
Approx 19" high, 23.5" outer diameter (inc handles), 17" inner diameter.
Been in the same family since 1952!
Complete with the incised Potters Art Guild "wheel" mark/stamp to outside; also some scratched numbers/potter's initials to inside (difficult to make out).
The pottery was started by Mary Seton Watts (wife of famous Victorian artist GF Watts) at Compton, Surrey.
Much of her output was also made for and retailed at Liberty & Co at the time, who also had their Archibald Knox Celtic style garden ornaments made at Compton.
NB some images taken inside and some outside in the sunshine.
