| Figure 5 Teabowl and saucer fragments, John Bartlam, Charleston, South Carolina, probably 1771–1773. Soft-paste porcelain. (Courtesy, Charleston Museum; photo, Stanley South.) These fragments excavated from sites in Charleston exhibited the same characteristic brown patina as Bartlam’s Cain Hoy porcelain. It is probable these examples were made at Bartlam’s “POTTERY and CHINA manufactory” in Charleston, which appears to have operated between 1771 and 1773, before he moved to Camden. |
