Later, more ambitious glazes, sgraffito decoration and ornate designs were adopted. Many workers came from the Linthorpe Pottery, which closed in 1889, often producing similar styles. V. Kremer and B. Sicard, two French ceramicists trained by Palissy revivalists, joined c.1881 and introduced applied decorations. In 1887 they launched Anglo Persian designs, which used similar colours to those on this plate. The Burmantofts name continued on ornamental wares after merger with the Leeds Fireclay Company in 1889 and the decorated products sold well until the early 1900s, but production of art pottery ceased in 1904. Burmantofts continued to produce architectural wares until the 1950s. reference term-120900 adlib-term-120900 388bb85e-e90a-3417-a007-99f254a808c0 19th Century, Late-20th Century, Early reference term-107567 adlib-term-107567 3b5b26a6-e8df-3d66-b1ba-c2a77781d6e0 literal England England country literal Yorkshire Yorkshire region Leeds (Yorks.) reference term-42861 adlib-term-42861 5b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956c earthenware Diameter cm 30.7 Height cm 2.8 reference term-90855 adlib-term-90855 b48207ec-774d-3e3e-8ab3-536996bc5dac dish reference term-116871 adlib-term-116871 5c423d08-2269-37ca-9c7d-587fef6ee891 wall plaque history note Lent by Rita Smythe reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum Ref. 48-52 reference publication-3367 adlib-publication-3367 d690c068-f9ae-39f7-b781-c471ea3065c7 Encyclopaedia of British Art Pottery 1870-1920 Ref. 66-67 reference publication-2669 adlib-publication-2669 aa0d3603-2ba6-3e9d-90d9-3f0d5506093f Encyclopedia of Pottery and Porcelain, The Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries reference publication-8627 adlib-publication-8627 eab50d82-9167-3347-bc9d-428f7b9ac716 Burmantofts Pottery Cf. p. 23, lot 577, a very similar plate but with flowers on cream ground, described as partie-colour ware and ‘unusual’. 23 reference publication-8628 adlib-publication-8628 b2c0b39a-6765-353a-81b3-e6d5e6afe03f Private collection of Burmantofts faience pottery, Thursday 22nd June 2017 reference term-42688 adlib-term-42688 4df03958-5ee6-3a50-ada9-491bb6445fdf Art Pottery plant reference term-106424 adlib-term-106424 f50d0c94-4e17-39fa-8fb8-d95288c5830d iris literal iris iris
