  1. Ooh, you made me hungry with all of those delicious tea cakes!

    Love Burleigh things and have a couple of the pale blue Asiatic Pheasants plates. I hadn’t realized how they were made, though, so it’s good to know that the old ways are still followed in these lovely pieces.

  2. I’ve always loved transferware, and Burleigh makes some that is very lovely. When we were living in Maine from the mid-90’s til mid 2000’s, I found an antique shop in Bath that had a wonderful selection of antique transferware. At one time there was also a shop in Carlisle PA that had a huge selection, including some really lovely pieces in cranberry and purple, as well as brown, and of course, lots of blue. I bought a few pieces which now grace my DD’s house. It looked better in my New England home than my house in KY but works quite wells in the bookcases in DD”s KY home. Burleigh makes the most wonderful, squatty shapes! I adore their teapots!

  3. This is a lovely post….about some fabulous patterns. I hate to be a snob, but when I see someone who has any transferware dishes, I think, CLASS. I have a hodgepodge collection of English transferware that all fits together, somehow. I hate to say it, but I still break stuff a fair bit—between dogs, my bumping, and cooking and clattering===I would be loathe to break any of these!

  4. After reading your post last week ( I love old dishes) I happened to be at a church rummage sale this weekend. It was the last day and everything was 50% off. I spotted a large platter with the light blue pattern in your post and I thought “Jackpot!” I guess nobody wanted it cause it was stained and had a pretty large crack. I loved that about it and imagined all the holiday turkeys and Sunday hams served on that platter with decades of families gathered around it. It was 1 dollar so I paid 50 cents. It hangs on the wall in my little cottage kitchen. Yay!

    • Dear April,
