With its familiar globe shape and deep-brown glaze, the ’Brown Betty’ teapot is a design classic. The teapots are still made today in Stoke on Trent, where they have been manufactured for centuries. Watch the raw material, a red clay called Etruria marl, being extracted from the clay seam, processed at Valentine’s Clays, and moulded by hand at Cauldon Ceramics, the oldest remaining maker of the Brown Betty teapot.
