Burleigh
Burleigh is a historic pottery brand based in the UK, known for its high-quality ceramics and traditional craftsmanship. The company was founded in 1851 in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, and has a rich heritage in the pottery industry.
Burleigh pottery is recognized for its distinctive blue and white transferware designs. The brand specializes in creating ceramics using the traditional method of underglaze transfer printing, where intricate patterns are applied to the pottery using engraved copper plates. This technique results in detailed and finely rendered designs that have become synonymous with Burleigh.
The patterns found on Burleigh pottery often draw inspiration from nature, with floral motifs, landscapes, and scenes from the British countryside being common themes. The brand also offers a range of classic and timeless designs that appeal to a variety of tastes and styles.
One of the notable aspects of Burleigh is its commitment to traditional manufacturing methods. The pottery is made from fine English earthenware clay, and each piece goes through a meticulous production process that includes hand-finishing and hand-decorating. Skilled artisans carefully apply the transfer patterns, ensuring precision and quality in every piece.
