The glaze is very evenly applied & is alot like this old unmarked coffee pot I have.

Yes well it looks like Minson was a retailer and didn't actually make any pottery.
Does the stamp look like one that Luke Adams would have used?

I think this is English Lovatt's Pottery. I have seen several others with the Minson's of Christchurch retailers mark. Evidently Minson's were fairly high end and ordered direct from a number of English potteries. I remember seeing a Royal Doulton piece with a Minson's stamp alongside once.
