In the business of producing pottery, tableware, and figurines for two centuries, Coalport offers the opportunity to create a consistent collection of both vintage and modern figurines for its collectors.  Its founder, John Rose, played a leading influence in the development of bone china products, and its figurines celebrate both modern taste and classical elegance.

About Coalport

Started in the late 1700s in Shropshire, England by John Rose, Coalport's bone china soon made it a leading pottery in England.  Rose, who learned under the tutelage of Thomas Turner, partnered with Edward Blakeway to buy a pottery.  At the beginning, Coalport created tableware.  Although figurines fromed a portion of the items produced by the pottery in the early 1800s, demand grew in the second half of the 19th century.  By the 1930s, figurines formed the majority of items created by Coalport.  In 1967, Coalport became a division of Wedgwood.

Current Coalport Figurine Collections:

Sentiments and Heart to Heart - These two figurine collections by Coalport express an emotion that lives far beyond the moment.  Each figurine is crafted to convey a particular emotion to the holder.  Whether you are looking to remind a friend of how you feel with your gift, or capture an important moment of your life never to be forgotten in the future, you can do so with one (or all) of these figurines.

Classic Elegance - There's no more beautiful and elegant way to find a new figurine then in the classic dress prevalent along Coalport's two century history.  And upon this classic and elegant fashion sense, Coalport has built an amazing collection of figurines perfect for the collector of lady figurines.

Birthstones - What better way to celebrate the year, or a friend's birthday, with Coalport's collection of birthstone figurines.  Fashionably dressed for the younger collector and dressed to emphasize the birthstone of the month, the birthstone collection by Coalport makes a great birthday gift or a wonderful set to display.
