Some of the painted patterns recently introduced are of good design, and their pressed jugs are of superior shape.
The marks adopted by these works have been but few, and these only very occasionally used. They are, so far as I have been able to ascertain, as follows:—“Don Pottery” pencilled in red on the bottom of the vessel, or “DON POTTERY” impressed on the bottom of the pieces.
GREEN
DON POTTERY
also impressed.
Fig. 884.
Fig. 885.
The first of these (Fig. [884]) was impressed, the second (Fig. [885]) was printed and transferred on the ware. It was the first mark used by Samuel Barker, and was adopted by him on purchasing the Don Pottery on its discontinuance by the Greens.
