You are bidding on a John Rogers & Son Flow Blue porcelain covered tureen from the time period circa 1784-1842. The original partnership of James & George Rogers established themselves at Dale Hall in 1784. After the death of his brother George in 1815 John Rogers took into the partnership his son Spenser trading as John Rogers & Son until 1842.In the earlier partnership they were working mainly in earthenware but developed their clays into semi-porcelain or stone ware as the family established a reputation for their wares, continually improving the quality and delicateness of both the body and the printing. Such was their reputation that Ward in his Borough of Stoke-upon-Trent 1843 remarked on the quality of their work. Both partnerships used the impressed mark ROGERS although some of their work was unmarked and their patterns untitled until the later period when they adopted the fashion of cartouche titling. This tureen carries the above embossed mark. The tureen is in very good condition for its' age. Some of the porcelain has been worn away around the edge due to everyday wear. T is a hair line crack on the upper left hand corner as show in picture. The lid has a chip on the lower left of the lid which is visible in second picture but has the gorgeous lion head finial which is perfect. T is a defect on the lid on the upper left hand side but as it is glazed over, it happened during its' creation. The pattern is Elephant and the colors are vivid and rich. Some of Rogers earlier patterns were taken up by WEDGWOOD in the latter half of the C19th and given the titles used today ie Fallow Deer, Elephant, Zebra. This was purchased at Schmidt's Auction House in Ypsilanti, Michigan by my parents back in the early 1950's. The sticker is still on the bottom of the tureen. Comes from non smoking home.If you have questions, please ask. If t is a particular photo you would like to see, please ask.
