Pilkington Royal Lancastrian Pottery & the Edgar Wood Connection

Angela and Barry Corbertt, archivists and experts of the Pilkington Society got our Autumn program of talks off to a flying start in the lecture room of the Edgar Wood Centre. They gave a fascinating account of this famous firm that created many of the most beautiful tiles and pottery of the Arts and Craft period. Members of the society brought along some of their Pilkington pottery for Barry and Angela to comment on.Barry Corbert a

The vase shown was made in 1931 and designed by William Mycroft, one of the firms longest serving designers.

We look forward to continuing our association with the Pilkington Society and a thank you to Angela and Barry for their talk.Screen aLecture a
