Churchill China can trace its origins back to 1795 and the foundation of its first factory in what later became Stoke-on-Trent in Staffordshire, England. As a manufacturer of the finest ceramic tableware. The company markets products for both the hospitality and retail markets, exporting to countries across the world. In hospitality it is known and respected for the product and strength and durability. Design is at the core of the business and the company continues to bring out new and inspired design for chefs, restaurants, hotels and other horeca establishments. Some of which have won awards. Along with the base in Stoke-on-Trent, Churchill has showrooms in London and Madrid. In April 2019 Churchill purchased the right to competitor Dudson's brand name and rights to its two most popular ranges - Harvest and Evo. On the retail Churchill has a longstanding reputation for working with licensed partners which over the years has included; Jeff Banks, Jamie Oliver, Cath Kidston, Disney, Royal Horticultural Society, as well as supporting some younger brand design-led niche brands. It also has two other English brands within the portfolio, Queens and James Sadler. Queens which originally was known for its English bone china but now is a modern eclectic collection based on consumer trend, whilst James Sadler and Sons Ltd, best known for its teapots, was established in 1882. It is perhaps best known globally though for its Blue Willow collection which is its oldest pattern and most collectible. STONECAST®: Stonecast is a collection of rustic and hand decorated products inspired by the changing seasons and fresh ingredients. The rustic collection is revived from a design in the Churchill archives, dating back to the days of the James Broadhurst factory. Stonecast is hand decorated with a fine speckle and rustic edge in a rich golden brown. The nature of the manufacturing process means that every piece will be slightly different, adding to the overall charm of the product. Is all Churchill China made in England?

Condition:Used
Condition:View all attachments for a visual description of set. Expand photos to view close-ups of details. I do not see any damage to the set. I see no breaks, no cracks, no chips, no odor, no stains. For the age of the set, it really is a nice set. Could pass for a new set. Plates are approximately 10 1/4" (D) x 1" (H). Plates could use a warm soapy wash. Still has some tape residue (sticky substance) from previous owner. I wipe items down, but I leave real cleaning up to buyer. Stand in photos DOES NOT come with plates. Look at plates closely by expanding photos. You will see a slight difference in shades (coloring). Also I noticed a slight crackle look to the plates. With the speckles, it kind of covers up the crackle look, as well as scratches. There are a few small scratches, but I could not capture them on camera.
