Round

Fluted corners on an otherwise plain surface characterize this beautiful body style. Fancy finials and handles provide added embellishment to an otherwise simple form. When comparing the different manufacturers you will notice the following:

Alfred Meakin - Has a skewered finial and oval, round or oblong footprints. Butter pats do not have any noticeable ridging but are scalloped and can be confused with Simple Pear although the latter is always marked Alfred Meakin LTD.

Embossed bands on holloware pieces resemble blanket hemstitching or piecrust rims, features sure to have appealed to the Victorian housewife.

A bulbous body style with embossed bowtie-like designs at the handle terminals. This style has only been found in chamber/bath sets. The ewer is unique in that it does not have a true pouring spout.

This is a simple body style featuring "C" shaped handles and a distinctive rim with a recessed line running just under the rim. Pieces flare out a bit at the top of holloware pieces and then taper down to the lightly smaller base.

A body style by Wick China Company, Erie features medium ribbing emanating from the upper body of serving pieces down to the base. The pitcher has a low flared spout and a "C" shaped handle.

This is a simple yet refined body style with bands of floral-embossed ribbon circling the base and rims of holloware pieces. The edge is rimmed with a chain of fleur-de-lis, symbols of an ancient kingdom.

Almost a Wdgwood trademark, the Daisy & Tulip rosette is prominent on the steeple finial and the arch of the handles. In this round body style, Wedgwood flanked the rosette with stylized tulips.

Registered in 1877

Developed by Wallace and Chetwynd, Gently Panelled has lines that divide the body of its serving pieces into four lobes. The front and back lobes protrude further out than do the side panels. The bracket handles sport beeding along each handle side, and the steepled finial is quite impressive. The Tea Leaf motif is more like two leaves and a bud and very streamlined.

This predecessor of Tea Leaf ware is tastefully decorated with several pomegranite motifs interspersed with leaves and sprigs, all in lustrous copper. The classical form is typical of this period.

This fancy body style features a bulging, bulbous mid-section with ring handles that attach just above the bulge and face downwards. The ring finial is shaped with a somewhat clover shaped opening. To date, only two sugar bowls and a plate have been discovered.
