Unlike plates, which were more easily stacked and stored, teapots were everyday workhorses of the table. Delicate spouts, handles, and lids made them especially vulnerable to damage and loss, making complete, well-preserved examples increasingly difficult to find after two centuries. This handsome teapot is a remarkable survivor, beautifully preserving the crisp transfer decoration, graceful form, and craftsmanship that have made Clews one of the most sought-after names in early English pottery. Whether displayed in a collection of historical transferware or admired as a statement piece on its own, it is a truly special acquisition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDetails\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRalph \u0026amp; James Clews, Staffordshire\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eLanding of General Lafayette\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e historical transfer pattern\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCirca 1825\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRare hollowware teapot\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eImpressed \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“Warranted”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e mark\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOriginal fitted lid\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRich cobalt blue transfer decoration\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eElegant molded handle and graceful spout\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHighly collectible early English transferware\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDimensions: 6 3\/4”H X 10 1\/2” handle to spout, 4 1\/2”D front to back. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition: Mint condition with minor discoloration to interior from use.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Greyson Manor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45670848626895,"sku":null,"price":615.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0608\/8038\/8303\/files\/01740E39-CA81-4E50-941C-0E98897AD8E6.jpg?v=1785798816","url":"https:\/\/www.shoplilliangrey.com\/ko\/products\/live-08-04-early-1800-s-dark-historical-blue-plate-general-lafayette-s-landing-clews-impressed-warranted-stamp-copy","provider":"Lillian Grey","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
