Burleigh has a rich heritage of design and craftsmanship, and a fascinating story of collapse and revival. Generation after generation has produced works of ceramic art from our model Victorian Factory - Middleport Pottery in Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent.

Our products are still hand made using the timeless skills of Stoke-on-Trent, such as the decorating method of underglaze transfer printing from engravings. This was once a common process in the English pottery industry, but is now extremely rare.

This beautiful English product comes to you from our Middleport Pottery built in 1889 next to the Trent and Mersey Canal. The tradition of making English earthenware “from clay to cup” continues. A renaissance in ceramics from the heart of Stoke-on-Trent.

Breakfast, tea, dinner sets, jugs, mugs, cups and saucers, bowls, plates, platters, kitchenware, bathroom ware – many are reissues from our archive moulds.

Patterns include Calico, Asiatic Pheasants, Arden, Bluebird, Willow, Burgess Chintz, Felicity, and many more. Although blue and white is our speciality we also print in many other colours following contemporary trends and an echo of the rich history of transfer printing, which goes back to the 18th century. Our latest colours are red and black.
