A rare Taylor-Tunnicliffe pottery match or vesta holder with colour shooting scene to the front. The back depicting a game bag and rifle. The base stamped with Taylor Tunnicliff trademark in blue containing the initials 'TTC' within a circle under the 'Queen's Crown' with a red hand-written production number '6664'. A great piece for the shooting enthusiast. Slight crazing to the glaze.
