Royal Doulton is an English manufacturer of pottery and home accessories founded in 1815. It has always produced some more decorative wares, although initially mostly stoneware, and from the 1860s onwards the company made considerable efforts to build a reputation in the field of design, in which it was highly successful, as one of the first British manufacturers of art pottery.
Kingsware was developed by Charles Noke and produced between 1898 and 1939. No other factory in the world has been able to recreate the same lustrous finish, which makes Kingsware a unique and highly desirable collectable. The rich, brown effects of the Kingsware glaze were achieved by painting the design in the colored slip on the inside of the plaster of Paris mold, then the dark terra-cotta slip was added to form the body. The transparent glaze was then fired over the finished piece, giving depth to the colors beneath.
