Ashworth Bros Lug-Handled Antique Bowl ~ Blue Willow ~ Hanley, England

Description: Lug-handled bowls: The shape of soup bowl/soup cup handles help determine the bowl’s use at the table.Vertical open-loop handles (cream soup bowl or bouillon cup) can be lifted and the liquid is drunk.Solid horizontal handles (lug soup bowl) can be tilted to gather the last bit of liquid.Hanley is one of the six towns that, along with Burslem, Longton, Fenton, Tunstall and Stoke-upon-Trent, amalgamated to form the "polycentric" City of Stoke-on-Trent in Staffordshire, England. Hanley is the de facto city-center, having long been the commercial hub of Stoke-on-Trent. Although the name of Ashworth has only been associated with the Hanley works for about a hundred years the continuity of association to which they are heirs goes back well into the mid eighteenth century, when, for some fifty years, the Baddeleys were making their cream-colored earthenware ('an oven-full per diem') in competition with Josiah Wedgwood. Around 1848 a Francis Morley bought up the molds and patterns of the firm and carried on the Mason tradition. It was in Morley's time, too, that he was joined (in 1857) by the young Taylor Ashworth, who, after learning the craft, became a partner. But Francis Morley's health was failing, and he retired in 1863, whereupon George Ashworth bought the business for his sons. It has traded under the name Geo. L. Ashworth and Brothers ever since. The head of the firm was George Leach Ashworth, other brothers being James and Taylor Ashworth.The latter was instrumental in extending the scope of the business and, in addition to table wares and kitchen utensils, chemical goods, sanitary wares and electrical insulators were produced. His reign as Director lasted twenty-four years, when, so far as the Ashworth family were concerned, it suddenly ended in 1883, for the brothers were deeply involved in the collapse of the Lancashire woollen trade at that time. But it was bought up as a going concern by J. H. Goddard for his son J. Shaw Goddard.
