Doulton Lambeth
The fine quality wares were described by Llewellynn Jewitt in 1883
‘In Terra-cotta, Messrs Doulton’s work rank high, both for the beauty of their products, the variety of designs they have introduces, and the durability and excellence of their material. ‘
Most of the firm’s terracotta ornaments bear indented marks, which occur in varying forms, usually on the lower part of the piece. Items dating prior to 1854 are usually marked with ‘Doulton & Watts’, at times together with wording such as ‘Lambeth Pottery London’ or ‘High Street Lambeth’.
