JASPER WARE 
MAUE BY WILLIAM ADAMS OF TUNSTALL. KNGLAND. 
IT is not generally known by collectors that Josiah Wedg- 
wood, the great English potter, had many active competi- 
tors in the manufacture of his celebrated jasper ware, which 
he first brought out in 1773 or 1774. Such, however, was the 
case, and some of the imitations of this fabric were fully equal, 
if not indeed superior, to the original. Among the more 
prominent potters to engage in the manufacture of jasper 
ware were Messrs. John and William Turner of Lane End, 
whose artistic creations in this body were scarcely inferior to 
No. 1— ADAMS JASFER WARE FROM THE COLE COLLECTION. 
Wedgwood's best productions, and the origin of many pieces 
which are now found in collections can only be determined by 
the names which are stamped on them. 
William Adams of Tunstall, England, probably carried the 
imitation of the Wedgwood jasper to the greatest perfection. 
As stated by Chaffers in his " Marks and Monograms," " He 
was a favorite pupil of Wedgwood, and while with him ex- 
ecuted some of his finest pieces in the jasper ware. He sub- 
sequently went into business on his own account, and produced 
much of this beautiful ware, modeled with great care, and 
successfully carried on a great trade. * * * * * * *
