Burgess & Leigh Ltd. Queen's White Burleigh Ware Ironstone Dinnerware

Description: Burgess & Leigh Ltd. Queen's White Burleigh Ware Ironstone, Burslem, England. Description: All White, Swirls Rim To Center. The Printed Maker's Mark on these pieces indicate that it was manufactured after 1960 but prior to 2000. Founded in 1851 under the name Hulme and Booth and it was not until 1877 that the name was changed to Burgess and Leigh. Until 1999 Burgess & Leigh was still being run by the family of one of the firm's founders, William Leigh. In 1999 all the directors were descendants of William Leigh. Edmund Leigh (the former Chairman) and Barry Leigh, his brother, being great-grandsons and their two sons Kingsley and Alan being the fifth generation of the family to be active in the business. In August 1999 the factory was rescued from the receivers by Rosemary and William Dorling and the name changed to Burgess, Dorling and Leigh. Condition: There are no chips or cracks. Shelf wear is minimal; these must have been kept with padded dividers. About half the pieces show crazing, which is common to English Ironstone, and adds to their intrigue.
