James Frederick Wiltshaw and the brothers James Alcock Robinson & William Herbert. Robinson established the company Wilshaw & Robinson in 1890 and they soon began production in the Carlton Works which where on Copeland Street in Stoke on Trent. The early production of this fledgling firm was branded with the W&R Swallow maker’s mark. This mark was in use until 1894 when it was replaced by the W&R Carlton Ware (Crown) mark. This mark was in use with just a couple of minor variations until 1927 when it was superseded in favor of the Carlton Ware script mark. This page and its sub pages cover the patterns first produced under the Swallow and the W&R maker’s marks.

The next four pages are the home of the Wiltshaw & Robinson patterns. Not all the patterns in this list are Blush  Ware, but they where first produced in the 1890 to 1916 era, which is when  Wiltshaw and Robinson conceived the majority of their Blush Ware patterns. I have decided to catalogue these patterns in alphabetical order and not numerical order as determine by pattern number as I have with the W&R pattern that were introduced after 1916 and the Carlton Ware patterns.

The Art Nouveau era was born 1890, which was the year that Wiltshaw & Robinson was founded, so it stands to reason that some W&R patterns are the epitome of Art Nouveau movement.
