Wedgwood Pottery (1966)

Barlaston, Staffordshire.
The manufacturing of Wedgwood China has not changed much since Josiah Wedgwood first opened his factory - a look around the Wedgwood factory.
M/S of a row of girls pummelling clay into moulds. C/U of a girl emptying the moulds - delicate little clay figures fall out. C/U of man's hands carefully laying the figures on an unfired china dish. Zoom out on a man as he sticks figures to a jug, pan along to another man working on a bowl.
Extreme C/U of an engraver tapping out patterns on a copper cylinder, M/S of a row of engravers at work. C/U of a sheet of pattern transfers coming off metal rollers. M/S of a girl cutting out circles from the sheet. M/S of another girl brushing the transfers onto a plate. Panning shot along a workshop full of women sticking transfers to cups and plates.
C/U of a girl decorating a jug by hand, zoom out and pan across a workshop full of workers painting crockery. Extreme C/U on a brush painting an ivy pattern on the rim of a plate. High angled shot of a man painting a gold pattern on a plate rim. More shots of the hand painting workshop - lots of use of steadycam as it zooms around from worker to worker. M/S of a row of women polishing completed bits of Wedgwood, zoom in on a gold rimmed plate.
Various C/Us on sparkling Wedgwood on display.

Look at how nicely they all dressed for work. I just bought more Wedgewood in the English Lace Pattern.

This video is most definitely from the 60s the clothes and hairstyles give it away! We all looked dressed well and groomed then😊😊😊

[@brooksiedoodle5087]

I believe the pattern they were working on is called Florentine. I have a few pieces of it. Wedgwood is just so timelessly elegant 😍
