<p>[QUOTE="Jeff Drum, post: 341472, member: 6444"]The post I made last week of the porcelain transferware teapot led me to do a bunch of online research on English pottery: softpaste, hardpaste, creamware, etc. which is always dangerous. It's something that I had only vaguely heard about before but that post and research helped me get a better understanding. I've had some 19th century wedgwood basalt for a while - this seems rather common and not very desirable in today's market. But this week I found what I think is an early piece of pearlware. If what I'm reading is correct, this would appear to be limited to about 1780's to 1830, and maybe on the early end of that since it has so much bluing. Apparently the undecorated ones like this teacup and saucer are fairly rare. Is this something anyone has any experience with?</p><p>[ATTACH=full]114952[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]114953[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]114954[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]114955[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]114956[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
