Description: | In 1994, the University acquired a regionally important collection of Royal Lancastrian Pottery, which was first made by Pilkingtons Tile and Pottery Company in 1897. The collection includes pottery produced in the 1930s and work commissioned from leading artists such Walter Crane, who was linked to the Arts and Crafts Movement. There are examples of Pilkingtons Tiles and items illustrating the rich range of glaze techniques employed at Pilkingtons factory and many examples of lustre ware (one of the most notable glazes developed by Pilkingtons). | Subjects: | Decorative & Applied Arts | Source: | Cornucopia - Discovering UK Collections | Address: | Great Hall Complex
