Lustreware was made in England since the early the 19th century initially in Staffordshire, where Wedgwood developed a pink or gold lustre finish about 1805. The Sunderland factories mostly made fairly cheap and popular pieces, usually in the characteristic pink colour. Many used the "splash" effect, achieved by dropping drops of oil onto the lustred piece prior to firing. (Wiki).
This is a particularly attractive example of the type.
