STONEWARE.

Messrs. Bates, Moore, and Co. are introducing to the London market neat and chaste specimens of toilet ware in 'stone china. The form of the ewer is a near approach to the ancient vase, and all the articles are very light in appearance, the patterns being simple and few, consisting either of a simple string or a narrow wreath of flowers, or flowers and fruit, such as the strawberry or blackberry, running around the inner surface of the basin near the edge and the outer surface of the throat of the ewer. The ground is in various colours, according to the taste of the purchaser.
