No two of these were ever alike — Wade's famous drip glaze was designed to run wild in the kiln, blending sea blue, moss green, and oatmeal in patterns no potter could predict or repeat. The Cauldron is a miniature three-legged pot from Wade's factory in Portadown, Northern Ireland, made in a narrow window between 1953 and 1956, with stamped shamrocks around her rim, an "Irish Porcelain" medallion at her front, and her original wire bale handle still swinging. She was born a souvenir and grew into a purpose: matches at the ready, beside the flame.

Wade Co. Armagh, Northern Ireland, 1953–1956. Approx. 2" tall. Handle, side loops, and all three feet intact. Matches not included.
