Doulton Burslem
In the late 1800s Doulton had two factories one down near London , called the Lambeth Works, where all of the lambeth art pottery came out of. In 1877 Doulton Acquired another factory up in Burslem, which then became the burslem factory.
Both factories carried their own distinguishing backstamps. For the Lambeth backstamps please see the section on Doulton Lambeth as in this section will only be for Burslem marks.
