Burlington Plate - History Help Please?

Hi All,

I have a 7" Burlington Plate which I have been able to date as registered on December 4, 1847, but I cannot locate the country of origin nor any information on the maker. I love this plate and I placed a sticky note on the back of it with the dating information for my sons for the future. Would like to add the history if anyone knows and would share. Thanks so much!

 

Here's a little something http://www.thepotteries.org/allpotters/903.htm

"John Shaw and Sons Ltd. were established in 1920 at the Drewery Works in Longton making Ornamental & Table ware. On 5 July 1933 they were registered as a limited company .

They traded as Burlington ware which later became Burlington Art Pottery."

 

I got 1850 from this chart: http://www.phoenixmasonry.org/masonicmuseum/Dating_English_Registry_Marks.htm
But when I took the dates to this chart: http://www.photane.com/reference/ukdiamondregistrations.html I got Ridgeway, which does have a Burlington, but it doesn't look like yours. So--phhht!
BTW, those dates on Shaw tell us it's definitely not theirs.

 

Your link helped me with another item I have - a small Tubby jug so thank you very much!

 

No, it doesn't, but the dates are close in range. I do like when people respond and offer their knowledge and links to sources. Researching can both be fun and frustrating at the same time. Many thanks for your time and effort!

 

I enjoy helping if I can, cause I need a great deal of help myself! LOL!! I don't know a lot, but I do know how to research.
