Minton Ware

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Minton Ware refers to ceramic products of Thomas Minton & Sons, a company founded by Thomas Minton in 1793.

During the 19th century, Mintons became one of the leading pottery works of England, producing many shapes and designs including willow pattern. The Minton factory in Stoke-on-Trent was rebuilt after the Second World War, but has recently been demolished as part of rationalisation within the Royal Doulton group. Specialized porcelain tableware continues to be produced under the Minton name.
