Collection: Clerkenwell Blue

English Fine Bone China is a premium ceramic renowned for its luminous whiteness, refined translucency, and remarkable strength. It is crafted from a carefully balanced blend of bone ash, kaolin, and feldspar, creating a material that feels delicate yet is exceptionally durable in daily use. The addition of bone ash gives Fine Bone China its signature warmth of colour and lightness, while the high-temperature firing process produces a smooth, glassy glaze that resists scratches and wear. This combination has made it one of the most prestigious ceramics in the world, long associated with elegance, craftsmanship, and heritage.

Cobalt blue is one of the oldest and most iconic forms of ceramic decoration. Made from cobalt oxide, the pigment withstands extremely high firing temperatures, producing a deep, vivid blue that is both permanent and highly resistant to fading. In Fine Bone China, cobalt blue designs are traditionally applied under the glaze, meaning the decoration is sealed beneath a clear, glossy layer. This gives the colour exceptional brilliance and ensures it remains vibrant even after decades of use. Cobalt blue motifs are admired for their richness, artistry, and timeless appeal—ranging from classic florals to contemporary geometric patterns.

Stoke-on-Trent—often called The Potteries—is the historic home of British ceramics. For over 300 years, it has been the centre of fine porcelain craftsmanship, combining traditional techniques with modern manufacturing. Many of the world’s most respected china makers originated here, and the region remains synonymous with quality, heritage, and artisanal skill.

Proper care ensures your Fine Bone China can be enjoyed for generations. Our pieces are crafted for modern living while preserving traditional English craftsmanship.

Dishwasher & Microwave Safe:
Designed for everyday convenience, our Clerkenwell Blue Collection is fully dishwasher safe. The durable, high-gloss glaze protects each piece, while the cobalt blue decoration—applied under the glaze before firing—remains permanently fused into the surface. This traditional technique ensures the colour retains its brilliance over time.
