In 1900, the company employed over 700 people in the Staffordshire area and was seen as one of the largest producers of Majolica in England in the late 1800s. In their prime, the company had showrooms in London, Paris, Berlin and Vienna. Pre-1900 the company was known for producing a vast range of Victorian Majolica.
