Potter: Ridgway & Co

Biography

William Ridgway & Company was not known as a producer of Tea Leaf decorated wares, but if "Tea Leaf" is defined as "Lustre band and Sprig" then the two floral motifs flanking a nosegay decoration would qualify. One of the earliest examples of "Tea Leaf" decoration, their marks can be traced to the period 1834 to 1854.
