Today we are here to talk about mulberry china. Mulberry china was produced around the 1820's
to 1850's is when it came into popularity. For that you had Flow Blue and Historical
Blue but now we are moving on into the 1820's to 1850's, this mulberry became very popular.
It was made in the Staffordshire District of England. It is an earthen ware made from
the mulberry bush so you will see a wide variety of colors, variation of color from when it
was produced. Also just aging over the years it will fade, so you will see quite a large
range. This particular mulberry was produced in England and exported to the states and
it was every day tableware of that period and it was very popular so there is a wide
range of patterns and colors that can collect in this particular earthen ware or it is also
classified as an Ironstone because the base is so heavy that you can feel the difference
in this type of china compared to say the historical blue which is a lighter porcelain.
So you can see a big difference in this mulberry and we will show you more later on this series.
