Minton was one of the pioneers of English china production. They were located in Staffordshire and were known specifically for their wonderfully fine white bone china and bright colours. Throughout the different phases of its existence, the factory made top quality creamware, porcelain, majolica and ultimately the finest parian porcelain. Minton excelled in their decorations and gilt work; these were often executed by artists who came from the Sèvres factory in France and brought their skills with them.
