EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the progressive stages of pottery production, showcasing an important and highly skilled industry. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this image is part of a private collection. It was originally used as an illustration for Harmsworths Business Encyclopedia and Commercial Educator in the 1920s. The photograph depicts various stages of pottery making, highlighting the meticulous craftsmanship involved. From finely ground clay to a potter shaping it on a revolving wheel, each step is carefully executed. The image showcases different types of pottery including bowls, jugs, vases, and soup tureens in oval shapes. Notable features include handles, spouts, embossments, and even tea services with intricate designs immersed in color. Copper plates press against rollers to add vibrant glazing while open tubs are used for dipper plunges to provide a coating using alkalis and earthy materials. The firing process takes place inside ovens called saggars where both bisque (unglazed) and glost (glazed) wares are heated at high temperatures. This ensures durability and strength before these exquisite pieces make their way into homes or businesses. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into the early twentieth-century business enterprises that produced these beautiful ceramic goods. It serves as a reminder of the importance of trade during this era when corporations thrived on free trade principles while transporting their products across borders.
