Blue Calico

Burleigh Blue Calico

バーレイ食器 

Blue Calico is a pattern that has been a firm favourite for over 50 years, based on Victorian designs that were inspired by the depiction of prunus blossoms falling on cracked ice - as depicted in Chinese porcelain of the time.

The various patterns produced by Burleigh work beautifully mixed or make a stunning single-pattern service.
Produced at the Burleigh pottery in Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent, in the heart of the Staffordshire potteries, where ceramic tableware has been produced for centuries, and by Burleigh since 1851.

Dishwasher and microwave proof, with a wonderful, hand applied transfer print.

Please note that due to the hand crafted nature of the transfer pattern, slight variations between pieces may occur. Also, a pattern join may be visible on some pieces; these aspects of Burleigh ware are a result of hand application of the patterns, a skillful process used since the 1750s now used uniquely by Burleigh, and is not a fault.
Small points on the underside of plates, bowls and some other pieces, where the glaze is missing, are also a part of the production process, where the pieces are placed on stands during firing. These small points without glaze do not affect the functionality of the items and there are no pieces of the same type without these stand marks.
