The Dragons that flew too high

 I recently had these two dragon patterned Bisto items on my watchlist.  I had a go at bidding on the ginger jar, but was outbid.  I stupidly forgot to place a bid on the chamber pot, and looking at the final price, probably would have won it if i had bid.  Both pieces are really lovely examples of Bisto's dragon ware designs and shout out 1920s.  I just wish i'd been a bit braver with my bidding and stretched a bit higher - i may have been burnt by the sun, or i might just have caught the dragon's tail.
