Roy Kirkham Emily Mug - Versailles Set of 6, Bone China Ceramic Made in England

A highly skilled artisan copper plate engraver, company founder and chairman Roy Kirkham formed the Pottery business in the early 1970 s producing character jugs and figurines, and later the fine bone for which he would become globally renowned. His fine bone china clay (or body ) was made with a blend of bone ash (44%), feldspar (30%) and kaolin clay (26%) to give the product an exquisite translucent appearance; yet it was found to be stronger and more chip resistant than all other porcelain products available. Every Roy Kirkham ceramic product is made using a recognised premium grade fine bone china body following the same principles perfected two hundred and thirty years ago. Product made in UK.
