🔍 PROVENANCE / MAKER NOTES
Royal Crown Derby traces its roots to the mid-18th century, when William Duesbury established a porcelain works in Derby. In 1890, the company was granted the title “Royal” by Queen Victoria, cementing its status among Britain’s finest porcelain manufacturers.

The Imari pattern was one of the firm’s most enduring successes, inspired by Japanese porcelain exported to Europe in the late 17th and 18th centuries. Characterised by bold cobalt blues, iron reds, and lavish gilding, Derby’s interpretation became a hallmark of English luxury ceramics. Pieces such as this trinket pot demonstrate the company’s craftsmanship and remain highly sought after by collectors.
