HISTORY/MARKS: Coalport has a long and colorful history in the production of fine china with quality and craftsmanship as their hallmarks since the firm was founded in 1750 by Squire Brown of Caughley Hall in Shropshire using clay and coal from his estate. John Rose (1772-1841), described as a purposeful and exacting individual, was apprenticed to Thomas Turner who was a potter with a revolutionary approach to making porcelain. In 1799 when Squire Brown fell ill, Rose bought the pottery establishing a ceramic manufactory which would produce Coalport China. Rose’s vision was to produce the highest quality bone china with the most brilliant colors possible. In 1899 Coalport China (John Rose & Co.), became a limited liability company under its new owner, Peter Bruff. The Bruff family continued to run the business until the 1924 purchase by Cauldon Potteries, Ltd. Coalport continued as a separate concern, but in 1926 china production was moved from Shropshire to Cauldon Place Works in Shelton, Staffordshire. When Cauldon went into receivership in 1932, Coalport was acquired by Harrison & Son. Coalport became a member of the Wedgewood Group in 1967 and continues its high quality production to this date. Geoffrey Godden’s Encyclopaedia of British Pottery and Porcelain Marks identifies this mark as #959 which was used in the 1881-1939+ time period. If just "England" is in part of the backstamp, it was produced in 1891-1919, Circa 1891-1919. Please view all pictures carefully as they are part of the description.
