Old Bristol potteries is a 1920 account by W. J. Pountney of the potters and potteries of Bristol and Brislington between 1650 and 1850, published in Bristol and New York for collectors and students of English ceramics. Its plates show delftware dishes, a pierced ceramic cylinder, and small jugs and a covered tureen in painted earthenware. A designer might take from them the loose, hand-painted motifs of ships, figures, scrolls and floral borders typical of early English tin-glazed pottery.
