FENTON, STOKE-ON-TRENT, ENGLAND, COLOURED POT LID, 4 1/4 “ DIAMETER, WITH RING BORDER. A lovely PRATTWARE POT LID with a ring border, in good condition but with crack underglaze running across, only visible in some lights, 1 tiny nick on the inside underside rim, some crazing. The detail on this lid is beautiful and the colours soft and subtle. There are essentially two different types of Prattware of interest to collectors. There is early, hand painted Prattware and also a later, transfer printed Prattware. Both types of wares were produced by the Pratt pottery works in Fenton, Staffordshire, which was in continuous operation from 1775 until 1885 and it is after this company that Prattware is named. Early Prattware is a cream tinted earthenware, with coloured relief decoration painted underneath the glaze, which was made from about 1780 until the 1840's. It was typically produced from the same pallete of colours, namely brilliant orange, green, cobalt blue, black or brown. This early pottery was not only produced by the Pratt factory, it was also produced by several other potteries in Staffordshire, along with many other companies from all over England and Scotland.
