COALPORT PORCELAIN: The small town of Coalport was home to an important pottery founded in 1795 by John Rose. It produced Coalport porcelain which became popular worldwide. Production moved to Staffordshire in 1926. The company subsequently became part of the world-famous Wedgwood group in 1967. Today, Coalport continues to produce new patterns and uphold brand reputation as a premier English porcelain company.
BONE CHINA: Bone china clay is a type of porcelain that is made with 50% animal bone ash, 25% china clay (kaolin) & 25% china stone (feldspar). It has a translucent body due to the animal bone content and it is the whitest, finest clay porcelain. The bone also gives it some strength and it was first developed by Spode in 1799 and later used by all the potteries in England. I was expensive to produce but it was finer and whiter than all the other porcelain at the time.
Bone china clay is a very specialised clay. It is great for slip ware and slip casting, but in terms of sculpting it is only really good for making small items such as flowers.
