The 18th and 19th centuries are often regarded as the creative zenith of the industry, with potteries producing many superb quality pieces to rival the country’s finest. The foremost manufacturer in this period was the Leeds Pottery Company, established around 1770 in Hunslet. The company are best known for their creamware made from Cornish clay and given a translucent glaze. Although other potteries in the country made creamware, the Leeds product was of such a high quality that all creamware became popularly known as ‘Leedsware’. The company’s other products included blackware and drabware. The Leeds Pottery was perhaps the largest pottery in Yorkshire. In the early 1800s it used over 9000 tonnes of coal a year and exported to places such as Russia and Brazil. Business suffered in the later 1800s due to increased competition and the company closed in 1881. Production was restarted in 1888 by a ‘revivalist’ company which used old Leeds Pottery designs and labelled their products ‘Leeds Pottery’. The revivalist company closed in 1957. Another key manufacturer was Burmantofts Pottery, established around 1845 in the Burmantofts district of Leeds.

  • The Safavid Potter at the Crossroad of Styles – Yolande Crowe - 26.1.2007 - 1/10
    The Safavid potter at the crossroad of styles – Yolande Crowe - 26.1.2007 - 1/10 The Safavid potter at the crossroad of styles Yolande Crowe Forthcoming in: Iran and the World in the Safavid Age, 2007 Recent publications such as The Sea Route from Europe to Asia by Harry Holcroft (2000), or Lords of the East by Joan Sutton (1981), a cycle of conferences such as India, Land and Empire in Lisbon (2002) and even the 2002 exhibition on Trading Places : The East India Company and Asia at the British Library, neglect aspects of the trade which took place on the northern shores of the Gulf in the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries. Admittedly it was of less impor- tance than the spice trade and other commercial exchanges in ports of India, south-east and far-eastern Asia, but this is not a sound enough reason for neglecting the supplies and demands of Persia in particular. Even international conferences dealing with the ceramic trade pursued by the East India companies, especially the Dutch VOC (Vereenigde Oost-indische Compagnie) and the English East India Company, have omitted to draw attention to the part played by Persia and the Persian potter in the history of world ceramics. Although occasionally the Cape has been mentioned, it is as if there had been no ceramic production nor port of call along the sea route between far-eastern Asia, India and Europe. And yet the Persian contribution was well docu- mented by Volker as recently as 1954 and three years later by Lane1. In his pioneering work Volker presented a list of the transhipments of high-fired wares from the far-east to Asian trading ports including Bandar-Abbas; furthermore he recorded the quantities and approximate shapes of the ceramics.

  • A History of Delftware Delftware Is Tin-Glazed Earthenware, Composed
    A History of Delftware Delftware is tin-glazed earthenware, composed of a buff-colored body coated with a layer of lead opacified by tin ashes. It first appeared in the Near East in the 9th century, and then spread through trade to the Mediterranean, reaching South Spain in the 11th century. Delftware appeared in Italy in the 14th century before moving to France and the Low Countries (present day Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg) in the early 16th century. Despite its eastern origins, Delftware was named for the city of Delft, Holland, an area known both for pottery and several Delftware factories. In the 16th century, the Dutch modeled their pottery on the characteristics of Italian pottery. By the 17th century, however, the Dutch controlled much of the trade around Asia, having seized control from Portugal. As a result, Chinese style porcelain became extremely popular in the Netherlands. The factories that produced Delftware began to copy porcelain designs. This practice netted a huge profit after internal Chinese wars disrupted trade between China and the West and reduced the amount of porcelain imported from the east. The great demand for Chinese porcelain led many Dutch to buy Delftware porcelain In 1567 two Flemish potters, Jasper Andries and Jacob Jansen, arrived in Norwich, England to establish a Delftware factory. There was not enough clay in that area of England, however, so the two men moved their factory to London. In the 17th and 18th century other “Low Country” immigrants began arriving in England and established Delftware factories. These factories profited from exporting their products to the colonies in the Americas.
