My information comes from reading books and articles about TG Green. I don't have any personal history with the pottery. Unless someone has written a book on Bretby Ware I guess we'll never know.

My mother worked at Bretby pottery when she left school as a dipper (dipping the white ware into blue slip prior to firing and glazing). She always said that the process - white pot, blue slip layer on the outside, firing, making white lines on a lathe, then glazing was invented by Tooths, and copied by Greens. A number of my aunts on both side of the family also worked at Tooths and said the same (though I can now only offer hearsay evidence). Is there any way of finding out if this is true?
