Discuss, Buy and Trade Coalport Figurines with other collectors
The
Coalport factory was founded in 1795 by John Rose at Colebrookdale
in Shropshire, England and some early works are sometimes stamped 'Colebrookdale
Porcelain'. Coalport's glazed bone china proved very successful. By the
1830s, Coalport was one of the leading potteries of England and has remained
a household name ever since.
Coalport figurines have become increasingly popular due to their beauty,
elegance, and fine detail.
The Coalport Collectors Society was
formed in 1994, which has now become the
Collectors Choice.
Membership benefits include a quarterly magazine the 'Inspirations', exclusive
VIP factory visits, and free entrance to the
Wedgwood Visitors Centre
at Barlaston. Members also receive a free joining gift and the chance
to purchase special edition figurines.
Previous special editions included the excellent
Collingwood
Collection series. The first two pieces
Claire and
Mary
in the series are already fetching high prices on the secondary market.
Catherine was the third piece in the series and
Beverley
the fourth..
