One of the most collectable items is the Troika Marmalade Pot. This is an unusual example which has been decorated in a mottled grey/green with brown, cream and blue highlights by Jane Fitzgerald (later Parsons), who worked at the Troika Newlyn pottery between 1976 and 1983. Each face has a different design with two opposing faces fully coloured and the other two in relief only, in the same colour as the ground. The shoulders of the pot are in a dark petrol blue and the inside is in titanium white tin glaze.
It stands 10cm (4 inches) tall to the rim and is 7.5cm (3 inches) square. The base carries the standard hand painted Troika mark and the JF monogram for Jane Fitzgerald. In excellent condition with no chips, cracks or other damage evident, a nice piece to start a Troika collection.
