Liverpool porcelain is mostly of the soft-paste porcelain type and was produced between 1756 and 1804 in various factories in Liverpool. Tin-glazed Delftware had been produced in Liverpool from 1710 at numerous potteries, but some then switched to making porcelain. A portion of the output was exported, mainly to North America and the Caribbean. The factories produced a great variety of wares and some figures. However the main production was blue and white soft porcelain with the fashionable Oriental designs. Some printed wares, over and under glazed, were made as well as polychrome decorated pieces. Liverpool porcelain is characterized by foot-rims vertical or undercut on the inner surface; flat bases to mugs; areas of blue ground marbled in gold; a blued glaze giving a 'thundercloud' effect where thick under the base. There are no factory marks for the Liverpool concerns although a mark on later wares is sometimes seen in under-glaze blue with the initials HP. ==Factories== The factories included: * Richard Chaffers (1754-1765) * Samuel Gilbody (1754-1761) * William Reid (1755-1761) * Phillip Christian (1765-1778) * William Ball (1763 -? * James Pennington (1763-1773) * John & Jane Pennington (1770-1794) * Seth Pennington & John Part (1778-1803) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Liverpool porcelain」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
