This body style boasts oval footprints with some serving pieces sporting a scalloped base.  Embossing adorns the rim and upper torso as well as the scallops on the foot of some pieces.

A very ornate body style, usually of porcelain, Rococo is found in many guises with variations in embossing and shaping. Some examples of the body style can be found with fancy, footed bases while others have flat shaped bases below subtly embossed bodies.

The name "Richelieu Shape" evokes thoughts of fancy French rococo designs but the plain bulbous lines of this body style defy that description. The conical knobs, some with circus tent stripes, is the only relief from a rather simplistic form.

A charming variation of the Plain Round styles of the 1870's, Anthony Shaw used lavish copper lustre decoration at the handles and finial surrounds. The uplifted handles are molded with a tied bow seen both on sugar bowls and on pickle/relish dishes. The medallion arch typ[e finial seems out of keeping with this style of handles. Creamers have a slightly scalloped rim and high spout, very similar to Shaw's Cable and Ring body style.

A late Shaw body style on a semi-porcelain blank, which is creamy in color. It is characterized by the outline of a shield created by the vertical ridges. The backstamp is in brown ink. Registered in 1889.

Pear is recognized by its squatty bulbous body and the pairs of long narrow leaves at the handle terminals. The finial is a perky pear atop the domed lid. Note that there are two styles of bases - one has a shaped base while others are pedestaled.

Niagara Fan is thought to be one of the first body styles decorated with the traditional Tea Leaf motif. The fan designs at the junction of each ridged section resemble Walley's Niagara Shape, thus the name, Niagara Fan.

Note that on Niagara Fan there are four flutes in the design, whereas Niagara Shape has five.  Also, the Shaw decoration extends al the way to the neck on teapots, etc.  The Walley design terminates at a decorative band that surrounds the neck.

Registered in 1856.

Simplicity is a bulbous round style with uplifted handles. There is no embelishment other than the prominent Tea Leaf motif featured on the Shaw examples or the distinctive Rose motif of Powell and Bishop wares.

Another of the very popular wheat styles, this one is by Powell and Bishop and features double sprays of wheat sheaves with flowers on a bulbous round shape. Registered in 1869.
