Aynsley China

Aynsley China was a British producer of fine bone china, tableware and commemorative memorabilia, founded in 1775 by John Aynsley in Lane End, Staffordshire. They provided high quality fine china for an astonishing 242 years, being able to establish and build a reputation for beautiful china products which ecompasses skilled craftsmanship and exquisite designs.

The company was a favourite of the British royal family, with both Queen Elizabeth II and Diana, Princess of Wales choosing Anysley pottery as wedding gifts. Aynsley has without a doubt been one of the most influential brands in the British tableware industry. The famous designs such as Cottage Garden, Pembroke and Wild Tudor are collections that are still popular today. The company was purchased by Waterford Glass and renamed to Aynsley China Ltd. However, in May 1997 Belleek Pottery Group acquired the pottery.

We have an excellent selection of Anysley china available for the discerning collector or casual admirer alike.
