Oval

An embossed spray of flowers and foilage emanating from the handle terminals graces the body of the bulbous, rounded serving pieces.  Smaller sprays are found on the rims of plates and platters. 

Powell and Bishop decorated the Prairie Flowers blanks of their predecessors, Livesley and Powell, with the fanciful copper lustre Pomegranate design. Pitchers have a vertical arrangement of wheat and poppy embossing which characterized this body style.

This body style is very akin to the Delphi pattern produced by Thomas Elsmore. It bears a plain, smooth body with elaborate steeple handles and finials.

The syndenham body style was introduced by T & R Boote in 1853. It achieved instant popularity and thus was copied widely. The three potters (Livesley and Powell, Anthony Shaw and Edward Walley) decorated their Wrapped Sydenham versions with a variety of treatments. Collectors will find traditional Tea Leaf (Shaw) , Scallops (Walley) and Lustre Band (Livesley & Powell) motifs. FInials may also vary - Shaw may have a bud finial ahile Walley feature an acorn finial. Patton also made wares in this body style.

Tacoma was the name given to the Tea Leaf pieces - one of the five body styles of ironstone produced by Knowles, Taylor and Knowles. It has an oval or round footprint and an elyptical finial. Arched embossing is present on the sides of the ware.

This early bulbous style is divided into six sections by ridged lines which are extended above the neck to form heart shapes. Note that Livesley and Powell pieces have a mushroom finial while Jacob Furnival pieces sport a conical knob finial.

Registered in 1853.

Jacob Furnival's Wheat features wheat stalks embossed at the neck and curved gracefully upward from the lower handle terminals. Cinquefoil borders can be found on covered serving pieces while central cinquefoil motifs may be seen on other pieces.

Holloware pieces in this attractive style are divided into four sections by the ridged loops. Flatware pieces such as plates and platters have six sections while cups are divided into five sections. The rosebud finial lends its name to this early body style.

A close cousin to Grand Loop, Loop and Line features a horse-shoe shaped line decoration on the flange of underplates. Covered dishes have a split pod finial encircled with foilage.
