As technology was increasing, so did the colors. By the time transferware's popularity peaked, between 1810 - 1860 the colors came forth. Blue in pale and dark colors came forth, as well as green, red, pink, purple, yellow, black and brown were available. Brown was added to the color scheme in 1852 and later, during the Aesthetic Movement, became a primary color for potters. As one contemporary collector remarked about the transferware produced at that time, “Brown was the only color they (the potteries) did very well.”
