Description |
Roseville Flow Blue porcelain, 1880-1900, white and blue teapot with lid, made by John Maddock & Sons, Burslem, England. Staffordshire Potteries. Stamped on bottom: crown containing "John Maddock & Sons / Royal Vitreous / England," below crown: "Rosevillle" English pottery manufacturers, eager to profit from the popularity of "exotic" blue-and-white porcelain, mimicked the Chinese originals with "flow blue" patterns introduced in the mid-1800s. American consumers were charmed by the designs, which were often transfer-printed using machines rather than hand-painted, making the patterns broadly available and affordable to buyers. |
