Crafted in Derbyshire, England, the Denby Imperial Blue china showcases a striking combination of rich cobalt blues and pristine whites. Introduced in 1989, it stands as one of Denby’s most sought-after tableware lines, renowned for its distinct glaze and enduring elegance, merging traditional Denby shapes with the resilience needed for daily use.

Produced at the Denby Pottery using locally sourced clay, each piece undergoes meticulous handcrafting by skilled artisans, following time-honored pottery techniques passed down through generations. With up to 20 pairs of hands involved in the process, every item receives expert glazing, ensuring practicality, durability, and resistance to chipping.

Consider the following options when selecting your perfect china:

  • Earthenware: Known for its strength and practicality, earthenware is slightly thicker than other ceramics, ideal for everyday use.
  • Stoneware: Fired at high temperatures, stoneware boasts exceptional toughness and heat resistance, available in various glaze finishes to suit different preferences.
  • Porcelain: Renowned for its affordability and luxurious appearance, porcelain offers translucency and durability with a resilient glazed surface.
  • Fine china: Featuring synthetic bone ash, fine china provides an affordable alternative to bone china, exhibiting strength, translucency, and a creamy hue.
  • New bone china: Resembling bone china but without animal bone ash, this type of porcelain incorporates added calcium oxide for a similar aesthetic appeal.
  • Bone china: Recognized for its strength and translucency, white bone china is sturdy enough for daily use and typically dishwasher-safe, containing at least 35% bone ash while maintaining a delicate appearance.
