EDITORS COMMENTS
Making Oval Dishes by Machinery: A Glimpse into the Industrial Pottery Process at Alfred Meakin, Stoke-on-Trent, April 1913 This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the inner workings of the Alfred Meakin pottery factory during the early 1910s. The image, titled 'Making Oval Dishes by Machinery,' showcases the meticulous and intricate process of creating oval dishes using advanced machinery. The scene is set in a large, well-lit workshop filled with rows upon rows of machinery, each piece humming with purpose. Workers, dressed in protective aprons and hats, carefully tend to the machines, ensuring that each step in the production process runs smoothly. Windows along the walls allow natural light to filter in, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere. At the heart of the workshop, a large machine, known as a jolly, is in operation. This machine shapes the raw clay into the desired oval form using a series of rollers and molds. The clay is then carefully inspected before being transferred to the next stage of production. The visit of King George V and Queen Mary to the Alfred Meakin factory on April 23, 1913, added an air of excitement and importance to the day's activities. The royal couple were greeted with a demonstration of the latest machinery and production techniques, showcasing the innovative spirit and industrial prowess of the pottery industry during this period. This photograph captures the essence of the industrial revolution in the pottery industry, highlighting the intricate balance between man and machine in the creation of beautiful, functional dishes. The oval dishes produced during this time were highly sought after for their elegant shape and superior craftsmanship, making this image a fascinating window into the past.
