Delightful Malingware sponge-painted dressing table set: fine lustreware

Maling pottery was produced in the north east for 200 years by families descended from Hugenots (Malins). Founded in Sunderland the business moved to Newcastle upon Tyne in the early 19th century. The firm became one of the largest potteries in England and supplied retailers as prestigious as Harrods.
