PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Ornamenting China, Earthenware, Glass, and
like Ware.
We, THE COALPORT CHINA COMPANY (John Rose & Co.) LIMITED, of Coalport,
Ironbridge, in the County of Salop, and THOMAS JOHN BOTT, of Coalport aforesaid,
Art Director, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention relates to the ornamentation or decoration of china, porcelain, Parian
marble, earthenware, tiles and all kinds of fictile goods and glass ware, and more
"raised gold
particularly to that class of ceramic decoration known in the trade as
decoration" or working in paste for raised gold.
This has hitherto been effected by mixing the raising paste or color to about the
consistency of thick cream and then applying it to the ware by means of a brush or
hair pencil which is a work of considerable time and corresponding cost in production
and it can only be done in a satisfactory manner by experienced workmen.
Now our invention has for object to enable the ornamentation or decoration of the
said goods to be performed by comparatively unskilled workpeople with greater
rapidity and precision than have heretofore been possible.
According to our invention we mix the ornamenting substance or colour to the
consistency of a stiff paste or plaster and then press it on to the ware through a
perforated pattern which being removed leaves the decoration in relief attached to
the ware, thereby effecting a considerable saving in the cost of production of such
goods.
