Could you please tell me where i can find out about Royal Adams “Titian Ware.”
I have a large collection of matching pieces and i am having great trouble finding out about it.
I would be most grateful for any info
Thanks for our email about Titian Ware by William Adams from the West Midlands. The Adams family had potteries in Staffordshire as early as 1650. At that date two brothers, William and Thomas had separate ventures in Burslem. Such family activity has continued to the present. William Adams and Company, with large potteries in Tunstall is managed by members who are the 11th and 12th generations in direct descent from the original 17th century Adams of Burslem. (Now part of the Wedgwood Group.) Probably the most informative site is http://www.thepotteries.org/

I hope that this is a helpful starting point for your research.
Kind regards,
