This is a revised and enlarged edition of this extensively-researched book. "Pratt Ware" takes its name from a family firm of potters who worked in Staffordshire in the 18th and 19th centuries. This type of ware was also made, however, by many other potters, not only in Staffordshire but also in Yorkshire, Liverpool, Sunderland, Tyneside, Devonshire and on the East and West coasts of Scotland. The authors trace Pratt Ware to these various manufacturers and discuss the wide range of pieces which were produced. This book, now with the benefits of all the latest findings on the subject, an additional 16 pages and full colour throughout, is a study by authors with over 50 years' experience of collecting Pratt Ware. The numerous black and white and colour photographs, many of rare and unfamiliar objects, have nearly all been taken especially for this book from Museums and Private Collections around the world. In many cases the designs on the jugs and mugs are shown alongside the engravings, paintings or jasper ware cameos on which they were based.

A stunning new edition of the first book to cover the increasingly popular subject of Pratt Ware. It is the only book which recounts what is known of the Pratt family of Fenton near Stoke-on-Trent and explains how this distinctive pottery came to be associated with their name. This type of ware was also made, however, by many other potters, not only in Staffordshire but also in Yorkshire, Liverpool, Sunderland, Tyneside, Devonshire and on the East and West coasts of Scotland. The wide range of products is comprehensively discussed and each piece is traced to its manufacturer. The latest findings on the subject are presented here - including the details of a new maker who came to light during research for the book. New colour illustrations have been introduced throughout to replace many of those which were previously in black and white.
