- Contemporary advertisements refer to Salopian Art Pottery's wide range of shapes and glazes: “Some of the shapes…are produced in most charming art-colours, such as peacock-green, turquoise-blue, crimson, amber, yellow, and olive green” (The Severn Valley, 1882); “The pottery is made in nearly three hundred shapes and produced in about thirty colours and effects” (Pottery Gazette, June 1883). These claims are certainly borne out by surviving pieces.
- The pieces displayed in this gallery concentrate on shapes and glaze effects, from all-over single colours to streaked, splashed, sponged, dabbed and mottled effects.
- Many other shapes and glaze colours exist, and salopianartpottery.co.uk would be very interested to learn of them. If you can add to this gallery, please use thecontact formto get in touch.
