During the 1820s, they found that blue was found blur naturally. It became quite popular among collectors, and held in the highest regard by many and detested by others. Dispite the differences in opinion, large quantities of the transferware were produced and today collected by thousands yearly. Manufactures of the plates figured ways of enhancing the blurry plates - “by instilling lime or chloride of ammonia in the sagger while glazing.” (Williams, Flow Blue China, 1971, pg 5) Like it or hate it, flow blue is here to stay
