Wedgwood
Founded in 1759 by Josiah Wedgwood, Wedgwood revolutionised English ceramics through refined creamware and later bone china. Renowned for classical elegance, innovation, and quality, its porcelain dinnerware became a symbol of taste among European aristocracy and beyond.
Mortlocks of Oxford Street
Established in 1746 by John Mortlock and continuing for nearly two centuries until 1933, Mortlocks was undoubtedly one of the most influential traders and marketers of porcelain in England. Supplying dinner services to the Royal family, the European aristocracy and beyond, the retailer popularised many new and innovative techniques and designs such as those made by Coalport, Minton and Wedgwood.
