Origin & Maker
Royal Albert, a brand synonymous with fine bone china and delicate floral designs, has its origins in England in the late 19th century. Founded in 1896 in Longton, Staffordshire, the company was established by Thomas Clark Wild and quickly became renowned for its high-quality ceramics. Initially branded under the name "Albert Works" as a tribute to Prince Albert, the brand ultimately evolved into "Royal Albert" in 1904, signifying its dedication to classic British elegance and aligning with royal traditions.
Royal Albert gained popularity for its intricately designed floral patterns, inspired by English gardens, and particularly rose motifs, which remain iconic to this day. One of its most famous designs, "Old Country Roses," introduced in 1962, epitomises the brand's romantic floral style and has sold over 150 million pieces, making it one of the best-selling china patterns worldwide. The company also introduced the beloved “Flower of the Month” series, which celebrated seasonal blooms and became a collector’s favourite in the 1970s.
Now part of the Fiskars Group, Royal Albert continues to produce fine china with a commitment to its heritage of quality, elegance, and traditional British charm, remaining a staple in homes and collections globally.
