Green Asiatic Pheasants
nfused with our unrivalled style, this extension to Asiatic Pheasants in deep shades of green celebrates the way in which Burleigh has been decorating its wares with traditional tissue transfer since it began in 1851.
Hand crafted to be combined, layered and curated, this hue sets the perfect backdrop to delicious dishes and is designed to cater for large gatherings as well as intimate cups of tea.
History behind the Asiatic Pheasants Design: The pattern was originally designed in Staffordshire in the 1830's probably by a self-employed engraver, sadly we have no record of a name. Local pottery companies would have purchased the design as engraved plates; so multiple factories would produce the same pattern, and it was common that as businesses opened and closed in the fast paced industry, engravings would change hands frequently so attributing a pattern to a designer during these times was almost impossible.
Over the years since these early days of production Asiatic Pheasants has been reintroduced several times, remaining in continuous production since the 1990's. Just like all other Burleigh patterns, Asiatic Pheasants requires traditional skills and techniques to produce this famous ware. The highest-quality raw materials and our dedicated team of crafts people create our classic and timeless tableware. The last Pottery of its kind, Burleigh protects and celebrates tradition and craftsmanship; evident in each and every piece of ware.
