About the Item

Engine-Turned Elegance: Staffordshire Redware Coffee Pot by Myatt, Circa 1790-1810 A substantial and finely crafted Staffordshire redware coffee pot of ovoid form, produced by the Myatt pottery in the early 19th century. This impressive vessel showcases exceptional engine-turned decoration, featuring alternating bands of precise wave, chevron, and linear patterns cut into the clay across the body. The foot is elegantly encircled with a crimped, rope-twist design. The gracefully curved spout is accented with molded foliate details at its base, complementing the textured loop handle. The matching cover exhibits continuous linear engine-turning over its domed surface and is surmounted by a classic molded acorn finial. The entire piece is finished in a glossy clear glaze, which deepens the natural red clay body to a rich, warm mahogany tone. Measurements: Height: 11 1/2 inches (29.2 cm). Width: 8 inches (20.3 cm) from spout to handle. Depth: 5 inches (12.7 cm). Markings: Impressed "MYATT" to the underside. Condition: Good antique condition; typical minor wear or small frits to the spout or finial edges consistent with early 19th-century earthenware. Historical Context: The Myatt Factory: Operating in Staffordshire (specifically the Lane Delph / Fenton area) during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, the Myatt pottery was highly regarded for producing quality redware and black basalt that successfully rivaled the outputs of major contemporary factories like Wedgwood. Engine-Turning: This sophisticated decorative technique utilized a specialized, rose-engine lathe. Introduced to the pottery industry in the 1760s (most famously by Josiah Wedgwood), it allowed skilled artisans to cut precise, repetitive geometric patterns into the clay when it was in a "leather-hard" state before firing.
