Created from the Moorcroft's studio own mix of Staffordshire clay, formed in their own moulds, lathed into the perfect shape, decorated with tube-lined slip, painted according to their artist's designs in their own studio, and twice fired for brilliant colours, Moorcroft pottery remains a beautiful example of the old tradition of high end ceramics making that have been produced on location in Stoke-on Trent in England for hundreds of years. Inspired by the original arts and crafts designs of founder William Moorcroft since 1897, the company continues to produce stunning high quality ceramics today with its team of gifted artists in a continuing tradition of beautiful art pottery.
