Early Blue & White - James & Ralph Clews
The short-lived pottery (Cobridge 1817-1834) operated by James and Ralph Clews produced fine quality blue printed wares, primarily for export to America. Much sought after American views and subject matter were produced, usually in dark blue which was fashionable in the 1820s. Here is a superb dinner plate depicting the celebrated arrival of General Lafayette at Castle Garden, New York in 1824. For more details visit my website Premier Antiques
