about staffordshire potteries
(from: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staffordshire_Potteries)
the staffordshire potteries is the industrial area encompassing the six towns burslem, fenton, hanley, longton, stoke and tunstall, that now make up the city of stoke-on-trent in staffordshire, england. north staffordshire became a centre of ceramic production in the early 17th century, due to the local availability of clay, salt, lead and coal.
hundreds of companies produced all kinds of pottery, from tablewares and decorative pieces to industrial items. the main pottery types of earthenware, stoneware and porcelain were all made in large quantities, and the Staffordshire industry was a major innovator in developing new varieties of ceramic bodies such as bone china and jasperware, as well as pioneering transfer printing and other glazing and decorating techniques. In general Staffordshire was strongest in the middle and low price ranges, though the finest and most expensive types of wares were also made.
by the late 18th century north staffordshire was the largest producer of ceramics in britain, despite significant centres elsewhere. large export markets took staffordshire pottery around the world, especially in the 19th century. production had begun to decline in the late 19th century, as other countries developed their industries, and declined steeply after world war ii. some production continues in the area, but at a fraction of the levels at the peak of the industry.

shipping costs have really increased—this is calculated into the buy-it-now price.
i am not able to sell individual items from items i have listed as a group. i just don't have the stamina to create new listings for those. i apologize for that. i haven't initially individually listed items because i don't have enough listing slots to so.
trying to downsize some, though extremely melancholically.
shipping time: i otherwise work more than full time and my health isn't great, so kindly excuse the longer handling time. if i am able to ship sooner, i absolutely will do that
. i appreciate you taking the time to view my listing.
