A VISIT TO BURSLEM POTTERY AND STAFFORDSHIRE CREAMWARE
I was invited to Burslem Pottery in Burslem, Staffordshire. I couldn't believe how much work went into their craft pieces of pottery. I wanted to share my fantastic experience with you all, so I asked if I could make a short video. Tracy and her team were happy to show off their craft.
The earliest records of pottery manufacturing in the area date back to before 2000 BC. So pottery and ceramics are deeply ingrained in the culture here.
Thanks for watching. I'm a family friendly blogger who loves food, travel, coffee and culture.

Japan: Noritake Collection 2015
This video introduces u to worldly famous Noritake (“No.ri.ta.ke”) collection. These are highly sought out collectors’ items.
This video shows u only a handful of such Noritake art-works.
Noritake is a tableware and technology company headquartered in Nagoya, Aichi-prefecture in Japan. The simplified version of the company’s history is as follows (sources of the information: Wikipedia):
1876 Mr. Ichizaemon Morimura VI and his younger brother, Toyo, founded “Morimura Gumi” (or Morimura Group) with the intent of establishing overseas trading by a Japanese company.
1878 Toyo had established a business in New York, selling Japanese antiques and other goods, including pottery.
1881 The company was renamed as “Morimura Brothers.”
In the 1890s, Morimura Brothers became from retail to wholesale operations and started working on design improvements for the pottery and porcelain ware, which had become one-third of its business.
1899 All of the pottery and porcelain decorating factories in Tokyo and Kyoto had been consolidated in Nagoya, and the company started research on creating European-style hard white porcelain in Japan.
1904 Key members of this trading company created the Nippon Toki Kaisha, Ltd. (the Company that makes J's Finest China) in Japan.
A new factory was built in Noritake, near Nagoya
(As of May 2015, the address is as follows:
Noritake-shinmachi (= Noritake-new city),
Nishi-ku (= West district),
Nagoya, Aichi-prefecture, JAPAN.
U can purchase Noritake via their company Web site.
Note: As to eBay et al, one should be extra-careful for they may not
be “real Noritake.”)
1914 The company succeeded in creating their first Western-style dinner set, called Sedan, to compete with European porcelain companies. Nippon Toki wares were mostly aimed at the European Market. This forerunner of the modern Noritake Company was founded in the village of Noritake, a small suburb near Nagoya. Most of the company’s early wares carried one of the various “Nippon” back stamps to indicate its country of origin when exported to Western markets. Many collectors agree that the best examples of “Nippon-era” (1891~1921) hand painted porcelain carry a back stamp used by Noritake during the Nippon era.
1923 Nippon Toki was looking to streamline its paperwork using machines to handle large orders coming in from the U.S., and it was impressed by the Hollerith tabulating machines manufactured by the Computing Tabulating Recording Company (CTR).
1925 Morimura-Brothers entered into a sole agency agreement with CTR (which had been renamed IBM in 1924) to import the Hollerith machines into Japan. The first Hollerith tabulator in Japan was installed at Nippon Pottery in Sept. 1925, making Noritake an IBM customer #1 in Japan.
1939 Noritake started selling industrial grinding wheels based on its porcelain finishing technology. It now provides ceramic and diamond grinding and abrasive solutions for many industries.
Other products currently manufactured by Noritake, also derived from its core tableware manufacturing technologies, include thick film circuit substrates, engineering ceramics, ceramic powder, and vacuum fluorescent displays, as well as heating furnaces and kilns, mixing technology, filtration systems, and cutting and grinding machines.
Although consumers and collectors alike have called the tableware, Noritake (and/or simply, Nippon) since the late 1920s, the Japanese-parent company did not officially change its name to the Noritake Co., Limited until 1981.
Evidently, since Noritake is the name of a place, the company was initially prohibited from registering the name as a trading name.
2015 The Noritake Garden in Nagoya features the production of its ceramics and crystal glassware. Today, they also produce dentures for global people are ageing fast and perhaps most of them desire to stay beautiful… ; )

SOUNDBITE
Royal wedding memorabilia was pouring off factory production lines Wednesday after Prince William and Kate Middleton confirmed they're to get married on April 29 next year.
The Prince William Pottery factory in Liverpool is set to manufacture hundreds of thousands of special mugs, each bearing the faces of William and Kate enclosed in a heart-shaped design.
The mugs, expected to sell from around 10 UK pounds (15.8 US dollars) in retail stores, are a traditional way to express the nation's joy at royal weddings, said Peter Sanders, director of the company.
The Royals are such a big part of our society and it's a good way to keep a memory, a keepsake of the day, he said.
The Prince William Pottery isn't named after the Prince - but after the street where the company used to be situated when it was founded seventy years ago.
Royal officials said on Tuesday that Britain's Prince William and his fiance, will marry on 29 April 2011 in Westminster Abbey, the historic London church where Princess Diana's funeral was held.
The UK's Prime Minister, David Cameron, said the day, a Friday, would be a public holiday so that people who wish to watch the celebrations could do so.

William Edwards Home | Gilding Bone China by Hand - Royal Wedding Collection
To celebrate the Royal marriage of HRH Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, William Edwards Home has created a limited edition commemorative collection of fine bone china.
Crafted in the heart of the world-renowned Potteries in England, each exquisite item in the collection has been skillfully hand-decorated with a delicate pale pastel eau de nil mica and embellished with both platinum and 22 carat gold.
This video is one of our our most experienced gilders, who uses a very fine brush to apply liquid platinum to the rims of the bone china items by hand. Once applied, the bone china is fired (for the first time) in the kiln at 800 degrees for 16 hours.

Slip Casting at the Emma Bridgewater factory in Stoke-On-Trent, England
The clay that is used to make your favourite pieces of Emma Bridgewater pottery will have travelled from Wales, Cornwall and Staffordshire.
It is mixed up in huge quantities in the factory, in a machine rather like a giant food processor, and the slip casting technique that is used to create our beautiful shapes is time consuming and complicated.
Bigger shapes take longer to cast than the smaller shapes, so casting a teapot is a more time consuming process than casting a baby mug, for example. Click on the link to our video opposite and watch the process by which we produce those special personalised pieces.
And dont forget that you can come and visit us in our factory in Stoke on Trent all year round. It makes a great day out for children and grown-ups, and wed love to see you. Visit us at emmabridgewater.co.uk for more information.

Duchess China Stoke-on-Trent Pottery Review
You will be forgiven for not knowing Duchess China, despite making fine bone china in Stoke-on-Trent since 1888. However, we are about to introduce you to them and you will be double glad we did!!!
What we are looking for from a British made product is a great design, that is well made, at a reasonable price. All too often, when trying to support British manufactures, one of these essentials is missing. When we do find a something that does combine this 'holy trinity' of design, quality and price it makes us really happy. I am pleased to say that we have found all of this in Duchess China.
We have very kindly been sent a teapot, milk jug, sugar bowl and 8 cups by Dutchess for us to review. The set is part of their wonderfully vivid, almost Clarice Cliff-esque , Dapple Ridge range. If this design is a little 'out-there' for you there other ranges tend to be a lot more subdued but for us the the brightly coloured country scenes suit us fine.
UK: POTTERY FIRM MANUFACTURES ROYAL DIVORCE COMMEMORATIVE MUGS
English/Nat
A crockery company is cashing in on the impending divorce between Britain's Prince Charles and Princess Diana.
There's long been a tradition in Britain of marking happy Royal events, like births and marriages, with commemorative mugs.
Now a China manufacturer in Cornwall in the west of England is bringing out mugs marking the royal marriage split.
There's an old saying: There are two kinds of happiness in the world, misfortune to others and good fortune to one's self.
A Cornwall china makers is happy on both counts.
The company is producing Royal Divorce mugs commemorating the pending divorce of Britain's Prince Charles and Princess Diana.
The demand for the mugs has been overwhelming.
The misfortune of the Royal couple is promising not only good fortune but windfall profits to the J and S Chown China Company.
SOUNDBITE:
Well it is a very special occasion because I think that since Henry VIII there hasn't been an heir to the throne that has been divorced. So it is something that commemorative people would want to have for the future.
SUPERCAPTION: Heather Chown, Partner Chown China
The mugs are made the fine bone china.
They depict the Welsh and Union Jack flags drooping and the Prince and Princess looking away from each other.
The company's original run of 300 mugs has been increased to more than two- thousand.
The price tag for this sad memento is 9 pounds sterling and 99 pence (about 16 U-S dollars).
Although the mugs are selling like hot cakes a lot of tourist found the whole idea a bit sordid.
SOUNDBITE:
I don't think I would buy it in any way shape or form. I think there is something tasteless about it.
SUPERCAPTION: VOXPOP
SOUNDBITE:
Would you buy something like that? No. A bit tacky for you? Its a bit Tacky. No it's too much
SUPER CAPTION: VOXPOP
SOUNDBITE:
To be honest, its very tasteless.
SUPERCAPTION: VOXPOP
SOUNDBITE:
Well its not very -- how do you say it -- nice to do that . But a, I think quite a lot of people will buy this.
SUPERCAPTION: VOXPOP
The multi-million pound (dollar) divorce of the Prince and Princess of Wales could be finalised within a matter weeks.
If the mug marking the event is as big a success as expected, the manufacturer may bring out an Andy and Fergie Divorce mug.
