FAQs

Pearlware is a type of refined earthenware developed in the late 18th century in Staffordshire, England, characterised by a thin glaze with a bluish tint, and it was primarily produced from the 1780s through the 1840s.

These services were crafted from fine white earthenware clay bodies, covered in a lead glaze containing a small amount of cobalt to achieve the characteristic bluish cast, and typically decorated with hand-painted underglaze colours or transfer printing.

Authenticity is identified through characteristics such as crazing in the glaze, pooling of the blue tint in crevices, historical foot ring construction, hand-painted brushwork rather than modern printing, and typical wear consistent with age.

Antique ceramic sets can be displayed within glass-fronted cabinets, mounted on walls using specialized plate hangers as focal art pieces, or curated on open shelving to add historical texture and rich colour to a room.

Antique pearlware should always be washed by hand using mild, non-abrasive soap and lukewarm water, never placed in a dishwasher, and kept away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations to prevent glaze deterioration.
