Notes | 'Thanks' for loan of Overtoun Bandstand to Stoke-on-Trent Garden Festival 1986. Designed by Reuben Bouverie, possibly manufactured by Anmac Ltd. The teapot and cup were exhibited at the Potteries Shopping Centre for some time in the 1980s |
Me, my twin sister and big bro standing next to the big teapot!
Our father Reuben Bouverie designed this teapot and cup . I think he was working in association with a company in Nottingham that made buildings in plastic- it was called Anmac. My father died in 2020 but his colleague Reg Pegg still works in Nottingham at the university- he might know something. I vaguely remember Dad saying that the teapot and cup went abroad- maybe to Japan or the USA but I might have imagined it!
