From China to The Willow Pattern and Beyond
The Willow Pattern has long been a stock pattern of nearly every British Pottery manufacturer. In a new exhibition opening Saturday 17 June we showcase some of The Atkinson’s historic blue and white pottery collection and look at the ongoing fascination modern ceramicists have with The Willow Pattern and blue and white decoration.
