This style includes production techniques whereby enamel glazes and decorations are hand applied and worked in stages upon a fine pottery form and fired several times in a kiln. The Moorcroft factory started in 1913 under the direction of William Moorcroft, an experienced pottery designer and potter. The Moorcroft factory was famous for its famous tube lined, hand-painted art pottery. Moorcroft pottery is often referred to as Florian Ware and flambé ware which included highly developed glaze designs with vibrant colors. Queen Mary was an avid collector and in 1928 granted William and later, his son, Walter, a royal warrant. Tubelining is a technique of ceramic decoration. It involves squeezing a thin line of clay body through a nozzle onto the ware being decorated. An alternative term is "slip trailing". The skill takes time to acquire, and it is associated with art pottery rather than mass production.
