A Potteries Sunset
Archival print of the Price and Kensington bottle oven at Longport, silhouetted against a Potteries sunset. Available in A5, A4 and A3.
The bottle oven of the old Price and Kensington teapot works at Longport stands silhouetted against a dramatic evening sky in this image, its brickwork lit by the warm, golden tones of a Potteries sunset. Birds settle along its curved shoulders, and the gathering clouds lend the scene a moody, atmospheric weight. Once central to Stoke-on-Trent's ceramic industry, this bottle oven is now a proud survivor, a reminder of the days when hundreds of kilns like it filled the skyline of the Six Towns with smoke and purpose. The photograph is a tribute to the artistry and legacy of the Potteries, blending industrial history with the natural beauty of the setting sun. For those who love local heritage and the unmistakable shape of a bottle oven against the sky, this print brings a treasured piece of Staffordshire's pottery story into your home.
