There were many English porcelain factories that made fabulous English porcelain in the 19th and early 20th century. They include Coalport, Cauldon, George Jones, Davenport, Shelley, Paragon, Aynsley and Spode. Other major English porcelain factories like Minton, Royal Crown Derby, Royal Worcester, Spode and Wedgwood are shown in other sections under antique porcelain on this website.
The Coalport, Cauldon, Davenport and George Jones Companies had wonderful porcelain artists working for them. Many of the porcelain pieces you find from these companies are museum quality. Many of the artists that work for these companies have spent their lives perfecting their artistry. These artists specialized in painting flowers, landscapes, marine scenes, animals and birds. If these paintings on porcelain were on canvas, many would end up being paintings on museum walls. The detail of the workmanship is truly amazing. You can see some of the beautiful artistry by the pictures on this page.
All of the English porcelain we offer you are the best quality and they are in perfect condition. We love antiques that look like new, that have never been abused over the years, Please see our other English porcelain sections including Minton, Royal Crown Derby, Royal Worcester, Wedgwood and Spode on our website for an even larger selection of English porcelain.
The English porcelain companies produced really gorgeous dinnerware, which had fabulous raised gilding and jeweling. They had special artists who spent their life perfecting the art of gilding the porcelains. Many of the pieces were also jeweled which is a process of putting raised enamel or gold jewels or circles on the china. You can also see pictures of the English parian figures which Minton and Copeland made after 1860. They resemble marble figures and they were a favorite of Queen Victoria.
