Staffordshire Art Pottery
The center of the English pottery industry is the Staffordshire district of England. In about 1786, there were nearly eighty different potteries operating and that number increased exponentially by the early 1800's. This pottery district in England includes Burslem, Cobridge, Etruria, Fenton, Foley, Hanley, Lane, Longport, Stoke, and Tunstall. Many famous potters known today were a part of this district of pottery makers. Among them are Adams, Davenport, Spode, Stevenson, Wedgwood, and Wood. (Story continues below items)

Historical Staffordshire comprises a large group of collectibles including more recent works of Rowland and Marsellus, Johnson Brothers, among others. A wide variety of ornamental pottery originated in England's Staffordshire district, as well. These pieces could be considered a naive form of folk art, but this has not stopped their acceleration to the top rung of the antique Staffordshire figurine collecting ladder.
