About the Makers:

  • Crown Dorset is a trade name associated with Staffordshire porcelain, a region renowned for its centuries-old ceramic tradition. Staffordshire became a hub for English bone china production due to its rich clay deposits and skilled potters. Crown Dorset pieces often reflect the floral elegance and fine craftsmanship typical of the region.

  • Oakley China Ltd was a mid-20th-century English maker known for producing fine bone china tableware and decorative items. While less documented than larger firms, Oakley’s work is appreciated for its dainty floral patterns and quality porcelain, often found in tea sets and trinket dishes.
