Master moulds winth the design in relief were used to make sprig moulds with the design in intaglio. The latter were used to make relief sprigs which were applied to formed pots, such as teapots. At the Leeds Pottery these were mainly black basalt (a type of stoneware) but they were also be used for creamware. The largest collection of these moulds, found at the Leeds Pottery site by Joseph R. Kidson and his brother Frank Kidson, is at Temple Newsam House, near Leeds.
