This paper elucidates the range of body and glaze compositions used by Benjamin Lund at Bristol. Recipes included steatite, bone ash, glass cullet and crushed silica. A study of attributions based on objective science is now able to commence reattributing wares to Lund’s Bristol formerly thought to be Limehouse, Broad Street Worcester, early Warmstry House, Worcester and even an example regarded as a ‘fake’. Moreover the use of technology pathways allows for insights into factory linkages which might not be obvious based on stylistic features. A copy of this paper may be downloaded here.
