Background of Chelsea-Derby Porcelain:
Chelsea-Derby porcelain refers to the period when the famous Chelsea Porcelain Manufactory was absorbed into the Derby Porcelain Company in the late 18th century.
The transition marked an important development in English porcelain history, combining Chelsea's artistic refinement with Derby's technical excellence.
The Chelsea Porcelain Manufactory was founded around 1743 by Nicholas Sprimont, a Huguenot silversmith. It became one of England’s first and most prestigious porcelain factories, producing high-quality soft-paste porcelain inspired by Meissen and Sèvres.
By the late 1760s, however, financial difficulties and competition from other English and continental porcelain factories led to the decline of Chelsea.
In 1770, William Duesbury, the owner of the Derby Porcelain Manufactory, acquired Chelsea.
This led to the Chelsea-Derby period (1770–1784), during which the two brands were effectively merged.
Under Duesbury’s leadership The Chelsea-Derby pieces retained the high artistic quality of Chelsea but incorporated Derby’s more consistent production techniques.
The factory used a new mark—a gold anchor with a "D," reflecting the new ownership.
