Hello there I just inherited a Poole 'Everest' tea service, with 2 cups and saucers, a teapot, sugarbowl and milk jug. It seems 'Everest' ware is quite rare as you say, since I can't seem to find out anything about it, other than that it was probably produced between 1930 - 1935. I wondered if you knew any more than that? All the best
I have collected Poole Pottery for over 30 years now. It is an extensive collection of over 3000 pieces. The focus of the collection is plain Poole. The variety of colours, finishes, shapes and sizes seems to be infinite. My collection covers the period from the 1930s through to the sixties. The vases produced over this period are a particular interest of mine. Many pieces from my collection are featured in a recent publication called 'Poole Twintone and Tableware' by Anne Wilkinson.

Yes Everest is quite unusual. The dates you have are quite accurate. Everest was launched in 1932. I would love to see a picture of your set...
