Royal Crown Derby
Royal Crown Derby is the later incarnation of porcelain produced by the Derby-based factory that began in the mid-18th century as Derby Porcelain. The factory name changed to Crown Derby and then, following the award of the Royal warrant, to Royal Crown Derby in 1890.
Renowned especially for its bone china, the company is still in production making table and gift ware.
Hats off to Drake
07 July 2012Flick through the pages of an issue of ATG in the 1980s and there are many references to the rising market for Royal Doulton character jugs.
The final recovery of the honourable Old Rodney
12 July 2005As celebrations abound for the most famous of all seamen, another great British admiral was being remembered in spectacular fashion at the Nottingham auction rooms of Mellors & Kirk on June 16. The subject of a fierce engagement between collectors was the so-called Rodney Jug.
Manchester puts Derby porter mug on display
03 November 2004BACK in April in Antiques Trade Gazette No 1633, we pictured and discussed an unusual Derby porter mug decorated with industrial scenes of two Mancunian foundries which sold at Bonhams in London for £3800.
The cup that cheers... with Manchester engineers
31 March 2004YOU don’t see detailed architectural scenes that often on English porcelain. Such pieces are much more the preserve of Continental factories like Meissen, Sèvres or, most notably, Berlin. Their smooth, hard paste provides a better ground for the highly detailed, crisp painting these subjects demand. However, if topography is to be found on English porcelain, it is most likely be encountered on wares from the Derby factory which came nearest to emulating the Continental firms.
Part two of a single-owner collection of 18th century Derby porcelain
18 February 2004Having sold the first tranche of a single-owner collection of 18th century Derby porcelain in their May 2003 fine sale, Wintertons Fine Arts will be hoping for similar success when part two is offered in their March 17 sale in Lichfield.
Duke of Newcastle’s Derby porcelain service
17 April 2003Illustrated are a pair of ice pails, covers and liners from the Duke of Newcastle’s Derby porcelain service, c.1797, dispersed by Mellors and Kirk in Nottingham on April 10.
The image of quality and industry
24 July 2002English ceramics may have been the junior partner to their Continental cousins in lot terms at Christie’s South Kensington (17.5/10% buyer’s premium) on June 27, making up just 81 of the 230 lots, but they provided the two highest prices.
Mansion House dwarves grow in stature
27 June 2001UK: ONE rarely gets the chance to auction an auctioneer’s advertisement, at least in ceramic form, but this is what happened when Greenslade Taylor Hunt (15 per cent buyer's premium) offered this matched pair of early 19th century Derby figures, right, at their Taunton salerooms on May 31.
Bloor Derby cup with rare scene
03 January 2000UK: WHAT was it about this Bloor Derby cup which attracted attention from as far afield as America and Japan, when it was offered at the Derby salerooms of Neales on December 8?
