                            History of Minton China:

                            Thomas Minton founded his factory in 1793/6 in Stoke-upon-Trent. Minton was Spode's
                            nearest rival. He was famous for Minton ware - a cream-coloured and blue-printed
                            earthenware maiolica, bone china, and Parian porcelain; his factory was outstanding in the
                            Victorian period for its "art" porcelains. He also popularized the famous so-called
                            Willow pattern.
                            The Minton factory was the most popular supply source in the 19th century of dinnerware
                            made to order for embassies and for heads of state and the factory is still producing to the
                            present day.
