FAKE PORCELAIN

MARKET
limitations OF Old English
{ Pottery Well Made Some
Details Explained

The fact that the market is liter.
ally swamped with limitations or re.
productions Of pieces OF fine old
china and celebrated marks OF early
potters, seems to require a few
words Of explanation.
In England the art Of making
soft-paate porcelain was introduced
about 17lO.43 when the Bow and
Chelsea works were both founded.
Bow china, as II has been caIJea,
Il therefore highly valued, as it
affords specimens Of the earliest
English. work:
More especially specimen are
valued in the decorations Of which
| p bee is found in full relief, a
figure often introduced on the work
Of this factory.
The Chelsea factory turned out
work which has seldom been sur,
(, passed in Europe. Its models anc
Its workmen were imported from
Saxony and Brunswick, in Germany
| and its products were in such
demand that dealers croWed its
doors. and took every piece as fast
as baked.
| It's finest pieces were made be
tween 1850 and 1856 when it rivalnd
Dresden and Sevres.
/ The first hard-paste porcelain
made in England was by Cookworthy
/ who established a factory at ply
| mouth in 1860. For a LONG time /,
! was supposed that this was The
! last as well as the first hard-pasts
factory in England, but it was
ascertained that great quantities Of
! porcelain heretofore classed as Chi
nese and Astounding in England and
/ America, were made at Lowestofi
in England where manufactory
Fof pottery and porcelain was con
tinued in successful operation froir
1v56 till about 1920.
In many respects this LowestofI
china is more important than am
Lother English ware. 1t SO closely
resembled the Chinese fabric thai
1t was always bought and sold al
such.
In the latter part OF the last
century American families were II
the habit OF ordering sets of porce
lain from England which were made
with initials, Tnonograms, or arms
on each piece. Many sucn sets ART
/ now in American families.
Lowestoft ware is known by severa
peculiarities. On the larger pieces

work. Squirrels and foxes at full
