ROYAL ALBERT (1896-): Royal Albert china is fine bone china and has been produced in England since 1896. Royal Albert china was originally produced in the Albert pottery works Longton. Royal Albert Crown China was a brand of Thomas C Wild and Co. By 1935 the Royal Albert Crown China and TCW branding had developed into Royal Albert Bone China.
In 1964 T C Wild & Co was bought by the Pearson Group then merged with Lawleys ltd to form Allied English Potteries Ltd, but Wild was allowed to operate almost independently, and Royal Albert China continued as a leading china brand of the company.
T. C. Wild & Sons Ltd continued production of their iconic Royal Albert China at the Edensor works, throughout the 1960's and in 1970 T C Wild was renamed Royal Albert Ltd. In 1972 The Royal Doulton Group acquired the Pearson Group, and all its subsidiaries. Production of Royal Albert China was transferred to St Mary's works until it closed in 1998.
Between 1998 and 2002 Royal Albert china production was transferred to other works including factories in Indonesia, so not all Royal Albert china is in fact English! 
In 2005 Wedgwood took over the Royal Doulton group, and the Royal Albert China Brand. Wedgwood china itself went into receivership in 2008, the current brand owners are WWRD Holding Ltd.
