We EDWARD PROBERT EVANS Manager of The Royal Porcelain Works in
the City of Worcester and THOMAS SANDAY of Cole Hill in the said City,
Designer, do hereby declare the nature of our invention for IMPROVEMENTS IN
THE ORNAMENTATION OR DECORATION OF CHINA, EARTHENWARE, OR GLASS, to
be as follows:-
The object of the invention is to produce new or improved Ornamental or
decorative effects upon the surface of articles of Porcelain, Earthenware and Glass.
For this purpose in carrying out our invention we apply to the article or parts
thereof to be decorated a coating of a suitable varnish or other suitable medium
adapted to receive a design which we then apply by means of the process commonly
known as "printing" in enamel raised or other suitable color, according to the
pattern or design desired, from an engraved, electrotyped or other suitable plate or
surface adapted to reproduce the design. The design having been applied to the
articles to be decorated as described they are subjected to "firing" or baking in
the usual manner and corrugated, diaper, or other patterns in relief are produced.
We cover or coat the designs so produced or any desired portions thereof with any
suitable colour or metal by "Groundlaying" or "Gilding" and thus obtain novel
effects in the decoration of China Earthenware and Glass.

We EDWARD PROBERT EVANS Manager of The Royal Porcelain Works in the
City of Worcester and THOMAS SANDAY of Cole Hill in the said City Designer,
do hereby declare the nature of our invention for IMPROVEMENTS IN
ORNAMENTATION OR DECORATION OF CHINA EARTHENWARE OR GLASS, and in
what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and
ascertained in and by the following statement :-
The object of the invention is to produce new or improved ornamental or
decorative effects upon the surface of articles of Porcelain, Earthenware and
Glass.
For this purpose in the carrying out of our invention we apply to the article or
parts thereof to be decorated a coating of a suitable varnish or other suitable
medium adapted to receive a design which we then apply by means of the process
commonly known as "printing" in enamel, raised or other suitable colour,
according to the pattern or design desired from an engraved, electrotyped or other
suitable plate or surface adapted to reproduce the design. The design having been
applied to the articles to be decorated as described they are subjected to "firing
or baking in the usual manner and corrugated, diaper or other patterns in relief
are produced.

We cover or coat the designs so produced or any desired portions thereof with
any suitable colour or metal by "Groundlaying" or Gilding" and thus obtain
novel effects in the decoration of china, earthenware and Glass.
As an example of the mode of carrying our invention into effect we will suppose
that the particular effect, for the time being, desired be a band of corded ribbon,
or flowered or diapered silk or other similar material we then should proceed
somewhat as follows; that is to say 1. We coat the article say a plate, vase, cup,
or other article with (say) printers' varnish and on this apply the design to be
reproduced on the plate or other article by printing it in enamel, or raised colour
from an engraved or electrotyped plate.
The article thus treated we then fire in the usual way.
We then groundlay the desired portions of the work to taste.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said
invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed we declare that what
we claim is
The method of production of novel effects in the ornamentation or decoration of
China, Earthenware and Glass by the combination of processes in manner as set
forth.
