Notes on W L Baron of Barnstaple
The story of Baron Pottery centres around its founder, William Leonard Baron who was a modeller, designer and potter. He was born in Sidmouth, South Devon, in 1863. He studied at Lambeth School of Art, and took up his first job at Doulton, Lambeth in the early 1880s. Some time in 1884 he moved down to Barnstaple to work at the Brannam Pottery where he stayed for 9 years, designing and making much fine pottery.
In 1893 he starting his own company, Baron Pottery at Rolle Quay near Barnstaple.
Baron pottery is collected for its quality of design rather than finish.

Mason's Ironstone Bottle Vase in Chinese Dragon Pattern very rare, circa 1820
By Mason's Ironstone
Located in Lincoln, Lincolnshire
This is a very rare ironstone vase, in the Chinese style, all hand painted in the coloured dragon pattern, made by the Mason's factory in the early 19th century.
Both the vase shape and the pattern are very rare.
The vase has a bottle shape with a fairly tall neck, having two dolphin head handles, with attached loops.
(NOTES ON SHAPE
This vase style is a copy of a much earlier Chinese bronze vase shape produced in the Ming, Hongwu period of 1368 - 1398, which had similar decorative animal head side handles with loops. ( See the book Chinese Ceramics by He Li, page 216, published by Thames & Hudson. ).
Also On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 204;
The square handles and rings illustrate the metal origins of the shape of the vase. Similar examples have been excavated in Chinese tombs dating to the fifteenth and sixteenth century, suggesting that the shape was particularly popular at that time.)
This vase is beautifully hand decorated in a more complex variant of the Coloured Chinese Dragon pattern, with strong coloured enamels depicting a green dragon on one side and a pink dragon...
