FAQs

Prattware refers to a type of English earthenware produced primarily from the late 18th century to the mid-19th century, known for its distinctive low-relief moulding and high-fired underglaze colours, typically featuring blues, ochres, and browns.

These pieces were typically cast in two-part press moulds using local earthenware clay, then hand-painted with metallic oxide pigments before being dipped in a clear lead glaze and fired in a coal-burning kiln.

Authentic pieces exhibit signs of age such as crazing in the glaze, kiln debris adhered to the base, hand-carved finishing marks, and subtle variations in the oxide colouration characteristic of early nineteenth-century firing techniques.

Position small antique ceramic figures on bookshelves, mantelpieces, or side tables to introduce historical texture, pairing them against neutral backdrops or minimalist modern furniture to create a curated, eclectic aesthetic.

Clean antique pottery gently with a dry, soft microfibre cloth to remove dust, and avoid using water, chemical cleaners, or abrasive materials which can damage the fragile historic glaze and underlying body.
