    Transferware Database of Patterns and Sources

    Transferware Database of Patterns and Sources Pattern #4864 Pattern Name: Roman #01 Center Pattern Border Alternate Names: Greek Pattern, Kirk Series Category: Literature and the Performing Arts / Mythology Border: Miscellaneous / Classical themes / Decorative panels Additional Information: Plate, 9.5 inches. Two sections of the border are shown. Priestman2001, pp. 114-119, identifies a series of patterns on tablewares that Minton was producing by 1810, based on the engravings of Thomas Kirk that had been used to illustrate a catalogue of the collection of ancient Greek, Roman and Etruscan vases that had been put together by the British diplomat Sir William Hamilton in the latter half of the 18thC. Minton called them the Roman patterns, though the characters portrayed were not all Roman nor were the vases from which the drawings were taken all of Roman origin. The patterns have also been referred to as the Kirk series, after the artist and engraver. The pattern shown here is based on plate 54 in Kirk1804. The pattern and the source print are illustrated on p. 117 of Priestman2001, but no indication is given of what the scene represents. A circular cartouche containing various freemasonry symbols has been added to the central design, suggesting that the plate may have been part of a special order from Freemasons' Lodge. See also CoyshHenrywood1989, pp120-121, for a description of this series (here named Kirk series)and illustrations, including one of this pattern. Moore2010, pp. 120-121, illustrates the Kirk drawing and one from Tischbein, pl. 9, Vol. I in connection with a Spode pattern called 'Apollo Seated on a Winged Chair".

  • 1 the Willow Pattern

    1 the Willow Pattern

    The East India Company at Home, 1757-1857 – UCL History The Willow Pattern: Dunham Massey By Francesca D’Antonio Please note that this case study was first published on blogs.ucl.ac.uk/eicah in June 2014. For citation advice, visit: http://blogs.uc.ac.uk/eicah/usingthewebsite. Unlike other ‘objects studies’ featured in the East India Company At Home 1757-1857 project, this case study will focus on a specific ceramic ware pattern rather than a particular item associated with the East India Company (EIC). With particular attention to the contents of Dunham Massey, Greater Manchester, I focus here on the Willow Pattern, a type of blue and white ‘Chinese style’ design, which was created in 1790 at the Caughley Factory in Shropshire. The large-scale production of ceramic wares featuring the same design became possible only in the late eighteenth century after John Sadler and Guy Green patented their method of transfer printing for commercial use in 1756. Willow Pattern wares became increasingly popular in the early nineteenth century, allowing large groups of people access to this design. Despite imitating Chinese wares so that they recalled Chinese hard-stone porcelain body and cobalt blue decorations, these wares remained distinct from them, often attracting lower values and esteem. Although unfashionable now, they should not be merely dismissed as poor imitations by contemporary scholars, but rather need to be recognized for their complexities. To explore and reveal the contradictions and intricacies held within Willow Pattern wares, this case study asks two simple questions. First, what did Willow Pattern wares mean in nineteenth-century Britain? Second, did EIC families—who, as a group, enjoyed privileged access to Chinese porcelain—engage with these imitative wares and if so, how, why and what might their interactions reveal about the household objects? As other scholars have shown, EIC officials’ cultural understandings of China often developed from engagements with the materials they imported, as well as discussions of and visits to China.

    Stoke-On-Trent (Uk) Policy Brief #4 • Liveability

    STOKE-ON-TRENT (UK) POLICY BRIEF #4 • LIVEABILITY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This policy brief showcases a successful initiative to improve urban liveability in a shrinking city through repurposing its historical heritage. It shows how old industrial buildings could be used to accommodate new creative arts entrepreneurs and host high profile cultural events. The brief focusses on Spode Works, a 10-acre bone china pottery and homewares production site located in Stoke-on-Trent – a medium-size polycentric industrial city in central England1, coping with population loss. Building on local knowledge and stakeholders’ experiences of using the Spode site after the factory’s closure in 2009, this brief demonstrates how a shrinking city can challenge a negative stereotype, raise its profile, and improve attractiveness by generating new creative arts and culture dynamics from within the effectively repurposed old industrial assets. The key lesson learnt is that to enhance liveability one should not drive it down to specific concerns like housing, jobs, or leisure. Urban liveability is about the dynamism and wider significance of a place. These qualities can be improved by a visionary local authority, enthusiastic civil society, and risk-taking private sector partners, all committed to urban regeneration and raising the city profile through the development of local creative capacity for impactful events and knowledge exchange. INTRODUCTION Over the last two decades, Stoke-on-Trent actors have undertaken a series of initiatives aimed at making the city more attractive and liveable, including improvements in the social and private sector housing provision, tourist infrastructure developments, and civic-led creative arts projects. The local art and culture community and other stakeholders have acknowledged the city’s untapped potential for creativity and innovation.

    Newsletter 49

    CARLTON WARE NEWSLETTER #49 From Ian Harwood & Jerome Wilson June 2010 It has been quite a few months now since we published our last Newsletter and much has happened since then. On January 1 of this year, when we could see that we had a few days break in the winter weather, we hit the road south out of Calgary, on our way to Florida! We had a house rented for January 15, so we had 2 weeks to get there. Our plan was to drive south as fast as we could, to get below the snow belt, and then turn east and drive across the U.S.A., stopping here and there on the way – for antique shopping, of course! Our fast drive south, out of the winter weather, did not give us time for any shopping. Our first day’s drive got us out of Canada and into Montana and a stop for the night in Great Falls. The second day we crossed into Idaho and then into Utah and stopped for the second night in Ogden. The third day saw us drive south of the snow line in southern Utah, briefly cross into the top corner of Arizona and then into Nevada, where we stopped for a couple of days on the Las Vegas strip. You can always find a cheap, first class room in Vegas – just find an hotel that isn’t holding a convention and the best rooms can be had for as little as $45 a night. We stayed at Bally’s, right in the middle of it all.
