Moorcroft - 1897 - Present - Stroke-On-Trent, England

William Moorcroft the founder of Moorcroft Pottery started designing pottery for Hames Macintyre & Co. William being highly successful grew a reputation quickly and as a result he established his own company in 1912 which then lead to receiving the Royal Warrant from Queen Mary in 1929. Considered to be the “The Potter to the Queen” he designed brilliant handcrafted patterns inspired by nature often with floral motifs. Williams oldest son Walter Moorcroft takes over in 1945 and continues the legacy. Rachel Bishop only the 4th Moorcroft designer starting in 1993, Emma Bossons in 1996 and Nicola Slaney starting in 1997 drove this company to designing quality works of art to whats current today.
