Since it was founded in 1945, Branksome China has become renowned for producing well-designed tableware and superbly modelled porcelain animal studies. The finished china is a unique high fired porcelain which is very light and thin yet extremely hard and durable. It is safe to use in microwaves, dishwashers and ovens.

The China is still produced using hand-casting and jollying methods. All of the processes – from mould-making to glazing – are done by hand and are explained fully in the fascinating tour. All patterns are hand-painted and signed by Branksome China’s own artists.

You can take the china-making tour, browse the factory shop, or find a bargain in the Seconds’ Room.
