The Leeds Pottery Hunslet range has the most extensive number of pieces to it with individual items to cover most needs and requirements. With its Plates, Mugs, Jugs, Bowls, Cups and Saucers, and full Dinner Service it is ready to fulfil your every need or requirement.
Hunslet Tableware is inspired by the simple utilitarian crockery design which was primarily produced in the 18th century for use below stairs. Bold and heavy shapes were often decorated with a single outer band of herringbone moulding (this is called Roulette). Hunslet’s simple charm could no longer be confined to the servants use and it had to be given pride of place on the main table upstairs. Although originally made in Hunslet Leeds, the pottery is now made in the heart of the Staffordshire and the Potteries at Longton are in one of the original famous English pottery towns.
This Hunslet simple pottery design is no longer lost in the English stately home below and above stairs and it is to be found gracing the most discerning folk’s tables around the world. Particularly popular in America, Hunslet is a first choice when trying to impress at dinner parties. Take a browse through the extensive collection of dinnerware including the Hunslet Salad Plate which is a useful mid course size. The Hunslet Soup Plate placed on top of the Hunslet Dinner Plate also makes for a very elegant display. |
