Early Ironstone China

Staffordshire Ironstone jug c1825

The term 'Ironstone' was first used by Mason's in 1813 and soon other Staffordshire potters began to use it to describe their wares although Mason's alone used 'Patent Ironstone China' to distinguish their output. Here are two lovely dragon handled (Fenton shape) jugs from this period. For more visit Premier Antiques
