Burleigh Ware - Art Deco Tablewares

Burleigh Ware 'Zenith' shape breakfast set c1930

In the 1920s and 30s, Burgess and Leigh produced table ware shapes with stylised floral handles and knobs. Cups and bowls were based on conical forms whilst tureens, plates and saucers became rectangular with rounded corners. The 'Imperial' and 'Zenith' shapes have become classic and much sought after Art Deco items. For more Burleigh Ware see Premier Antiques
