The coarse earthenware pottery made in Liverpool during 18th C. looks a lot like pottery made elsewhere, but recent ID via elemental analysis shows that it reached plantations across the Atlantic, used for sugar refining and in the home.

The abundant #pottery clay in the region led to a strong potting industry around Liverpool in the post-Medieval period, in places like Prescot and Rainford. Excavations of kiln sites show large quantities of black and brown-glazed earthenwares

In exchange for tobacco, sugar, and other products arriving from plantations in the Americas, merchants would ship all sorts of cargo out of Liverpool. This included pottery like pans, mugs, and sugarwares.
