Moorcroft Pottery
William Moorcroft, the founder of Moorcroft pottery was born in Burslem, Staffordshire in 1872.
His father,Thomas was a designer and china painter with Hill pottery of Burslem while his mother
Teresa, was a school governess.
At school William showed an interest in Art and at twelve he attended Art and design classes
at the Wedgwood institute. He later went on to South Kensington school of Art and then the
Royal College of Art with a view to being an Art teacher but he had a passion to work in the pottery industry and his chance came in 1897 when he was offered the position as a designer at the famous pottery company of James Macintyre & Co.
He soon became a success with his floral and Art Nouveau designs and in 1904 he won the first
of his gold medals at the St Louis exhibition. His Florian ware was very popular the following year selling at leading shops in London, Paris and New York.
In 1913 he set up his own business in a purpose built factory continuing to create new designs
and by 1928 he was granted the Royal warrant by Queen Mary. He continued with his innovative designs and processes until his death in 1945. His son Walter, himself a talented designer, then took over the business.

Clarice Cliff joined the pottery firm of A.J.Wilkinson in 1916 as an apprentice Lithographer
but her ambition was to be a designer.She had to wait a few yeas to fullfill this ambition.
Meanwhile A.J. Wilkinson was doing very well under its management team of two brothers,
Colley and Guy Shorter. In 1920 they bought the adjoining pottery called Newport which was to
be a turning point for Clarice.
Clarice Cliff continued to learn the trade and was given a studio in the old Newport pottery
works. In 1927 Clarice came across a large amount of undecorated earthenware inherited
from Newport pottery and decided to decorate them in bright colours and brash designs.
The rest as they say is history, she went on from strength to strength and her pottery is now
much sought after from collectors around the world.Yet another great design Made in England.
