We are thrilled to see our bone china Cupola tableware featured in John Lewis & Partners Home magazine, and even more delighted to tell you that, after a few years out of stock, it will be back in store towards the end of this year! Designed by Queensberry Hunt, the collection was an instant hit when first released and steadily went on to become a JLP classic.

A slight departure from tableware, but still very tableware-related.

This photo was taken while standing in between our bone china factory to the left and porcelain to the right.

And oh what a beautiful day it was. Quite a still, peaceful-looking scene, but once you venture into either factory, it is a busy hive of activity where the magic of ceramics happens.

Today marks the third anniversary of Martin Hunt's passing. We look back on our many Queensberry Hunt collaborations with great warmth and pride, and count ourselves fortunate to be associated with one of the greatest tableware design partnerships ever to have graced the industry.

Lovely photo of one of our bone china collections thanks to our friends at The Wedding Shop UK. The hand-painted platinum rim sets a luxurious tone for the range while echoing the minimal design of the shapes.

Exciting development by our in-house design team.

Some of you may already be familiar with this process, but if not, what you see here are three 3D printed models of a new porcelain range we are working on.

There’s a bit of work to do still in terms of removing the ‘supports’ and sanding the pieces to a smooth surface, but the shapes are looking very promising so far.

There’s something quite otherworldly about this image, don’t you think?

Officially, one of the finest bone china tableware collections in the world.
