Lamorna Cove's azure and lapis blues attracted the artisans of the Newlyn School

LAMORNA COVE (1930s) | Cornwall: View from the harbour. 'Lamorna is a small hamlet on the south Cornwall coast between Mousehole and Porthcurno. The pub the "Lamorna Wink" was one of the original "kiddleywinks" - alehouses that could be opened by anyone willing to pay the £20 required by the Beer Act of 1830. Under the Act, spirits were banned but a "wink" would get you a contraband brandy over the counter.' ✫ღ⊰n
