Duchess China, a beloved name in fine English porcelain, traces its roots to the heart of Staffordshire, England—a region renowned for its pottery. Founded in 1888 by A.T. Finney in Longton, Duchess China quickly earned a reputation for elegant bone china teaware with delicate floral patterns and refined craftsmanship. What set Duchess apart was its commitment to quality and tradition, producing lightweight, durable pieces with timeless charm.

Through the 20th century, Duchess China became a staple in British homes and tea rooms, known for its graceful lines and classic English designs. Even during wartime hardships, the brand continued to thrive, adapting its collections while staying true to its heritage.

Now part of the esteemed Churchill China group, Duchess China continues to embody the artistry of British porcelain, appealing to collectors and tea lovers around the world. Each cup and saucer carries more than tea—it carries a legacy.
