William Edwards fine bone china Made in UK A passion for shape, design and traditional British craftsmanship are the inspirations behind every William Edwards piece of chinaware. The company began when William returned to his hometown, Stoke on Trent, in 1993 after graduating from the Royal College of Art (RCA) to set up what is now known as William Edwards Ltd. William and his team became well known for their skill in decorating fine ceramics for famous brands across the UK and around the world. When traditional manufacturing in the potteries went into decline, they saw another market for bespoke bone china, and di- versified into not just designing but also making exclusive chinaware for the world’s most discerning restaurants, hotels, clubs, retailers and royal palaces. William’s mission has always been to champion the craftsmanship and traditional skills found in Stoke-on-Trent, the heartland of England’s ceramics industry since Josiah Wedgwood’s heyday in the late 1700s. Vista Alegre Made in Portugal The progressive growth of supply and demand in the hotel sector, as well as the con- sequent increase in the quality, have encouraged Vista Alegre to invest in this highly competitive segment, viewing tourism as an organic extension of its activity. Always distinctive, Vista Alegre hotelware offers an excellent quality/price relation, making it an attractive choice in the medium, high and luxury segments. To this end, the brand’s strong image has been closely followed by the needs of the industry, with a range of diversified ranges that combine contemporary design, technical innovation and the functional properties demanded by the best professionals, including dimension, volumetry, resistance, and ergonomics. Revol Made in France ‘‘The charcoal line is the beginning. With it is born a natural roughness giving objects their narrative strength and their depth.’’ Here Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance has produced a design combining Art and the techni- cal orchestration of an industry working on behalf of the user. The ‘‘Caractère’’ col- lection reveals this meticulous work: the chosen thickness of the line and the rhythm provided by the height of the edges are the result of painstaking research and a gua- rantee of their elegance on the dining table. Invisible to the naked eye, the delicate lip gives the collection a lightness that adds poetry to the finished article. Rona crystal glass Made in Slovakia RONA – a glassworks employing over 1000 people in the heart of the European Uni- on, in the Slovak Republic. Its history reaches back to 1892 when it was established by the Schreiber family, once the most prominent glass producer in Europe, in a regi- on where the production of glass traditionally flourished all the way back to the Bronze Age. This was due to a fortunate combination of a heavily forested landscape and the availability of silica sand and fireproof clay - the basic raw materials needed for early glass production. Only a few of the seventy glassworks originally existing in the area survive today but those who do now belong to the avant-garde of modern glass pro- duction. The path of RONA has been paved with successes starting with a silver medal awar- ded to the glassworks’ predecessor during the World Exhibition in Paris in 1867, or the very rarely awarded Honorary Diploma in the World Exhibition in Vienna, to RONA’s presentation at the Expo exhibition in Shanghai in 2010, and attendance at the out- standing events of today´s glass world, including major exhibitions around the globe.

  • 9. Ceramic Arts
    Profile No.: 38 NIC Code: 23933 CEREMIC ARTS 1. INTRODUCTION: Ceramic art is art made from ceramic materials, including clay. It may take forms including art ware, tile, figurines, sculpture, and tableware. Ceramic art is one of the arts, particularly the visual arts. Of these, it is one of the plastic arts. While some ceramics are considered fine art, some are considered to be decorative, industrial or applied art objects. Ceramics may also be considered artifacts in archaeology. Ceramic art can be made by one person or by a group of people. In a pottery or ceramic factory, a group of people design, manufacture and decorate the art ware. Products from a pottery are sometimes referred to as "art pottery".[1] In a one-person pottery studio, ceramists or potters produce studio pottery. Most traditional ceramic products were made from clay (or clay mixed with other materials), shaped and subjected to heat, and tableware and decorative ceramics are generally still made this way. In modern ceramic engineering usage, ceramics is the art and science of making objects from inorganic, non-metallic materials by the action of heat. It excludes glass and mosaic made from glass tesserae. There is a long history of ceramic art in almost all developed cultures, and often ceramic objects are all the artistic evidence left from vanished cultures. Elements of ceramic art, upon which different degrees of emphasis have been placed at different times, are the shape of the object, its decoration by painting, carving and other methods, and the glazing found on most ceramics. 2.

  • Etch Imitation System for Porcelain and Bone China (One-Fire-Decal-Method)
    Etch Imitation System for Porcelain and Bone China (One-Fire-Decal-Method) 1 General Information Etched decorations belong to the richest, most valuable precious metal designs to be found on tableware. However, etched decorations are not only work-intensive and expensive but they also require working with aggressive acids. Instead, producers work with etching imitation systems in which first a decal with a matt underlay and a bright relief on top is produced, applied onto the substrate to be decorated, and fired. Secondly, a liquid precious metal is applied by brush on top of the relief and the item is fired for a second time. With this Technical Information, Heraeus Ceramic Colours introduces a one-fire-etch imitation system for decals. The new decoration system consists of carefully adjusted components: special underlay, special medium, relief, precious metal paste. The perfect harmony of these components allows the production of an imitation etching in one decal, which only needs to be transferred and fired once! 2 Firing Conditions Substrate Firing Condition s Porcelain 800 - 820°C (1470-1508°F), 2 to 3 hours cold/cold Bone China 800 - 820°C (1470-1508°F), 2 to 3 hours cold/cold Worldwide there are many different glazes. The firing conditions differ from producer to producer. Pre-tests under own individual conditions are absolutely necessary. 3 Characteristics of the Products The product composition and the production process determine the major product characteristics of the components of the decoration system. Testing each production lot guarantees a constant product quality. With regard to the bright precious metal pastes of the system we regularly check the viscosity, the printing characteristics, the outline of printed test decorations as well as the precious metal colour shade and the brightness of the decoration after firing on a defined test substrate.

Open Powers of attorney Declarations on support and company data Requests for confidentiality This annex contains powers of attorney, declarations on support and company data as well as requests for confidentiality. For the reasons set out hereafter, this information is limited and cannot be otherwise summarized. T:\Ma nda nten\RBI074raCeram\022__d_open\Annex_B_1 „1 „00„PoA„eíc_cover_open. docx -2- The European companies concerned have reason to believe that a complaint in their name will lead to retaliatory measures and have a disastrous effect on their production, sales and overall performance. A number of their customers are also purchasing and selling tableware that is imported from China. They have strong reasons to suspect that they will exert pressure as their suppliers probably would request them to withdraw their support from any action. Moreover, they strongiy expect that their customers will also relay the pressure from their Chinese suppliers and Chinese authorities, asking them not to support the anti-dumping investigation. Certain companies also have some activities in China and have to fear countermeasures from suppliers, customers and Chinese authorities, as witnessed in past trade cases for other products. For fear of the potential impact of possible retaliation on their business in China and elsewhere, their name needs to remain confidential. Such retaliation measures could lead to undue pressure on their commercial activities in the EU, restrictions placed on their activities in China and elsewhere and a loss of orders to customers in China and in the EU. This would frustrate the purpose of the anti-dumping investigation.

  • Porcelain Jersey Pottery Porcelain Is a Pure White and Translucent Ceramic
    Porcelain Jersey Pottery Porcelain is a pure white and translucent ceramic. It is extremely durable and strong enough to be used in commercial settings such as restaurants because it is fired at a hire temperature and is therefore non-porous and stain resistant. It is easy to clean and lead and cadmium- free. Porcelain is dishwasher and microwave safe, oven proof and will not fade and wear with heavy use. Bone China More delicate looking and generally finer than porcelain yet it is very strong. It is made from bone ash, china clay and china stone. Jersey Pottery Bone China is pure white and translucent. If you hold it up to the light you can see a shadow from an object placed in front of the bone china. New Bone China has similar characteristics to Bone China but avoids the use of bone is therefore suitable for those who may prefer for ethical reasons ceramics that do not contain animal products. Earthenware Jersey Pottery Earthenware is fired at a lower temperature than porcelain and bone china. It is also less strong, less tough and more porous than stoneware, but is less expensive and easier to work. Due to its higher porosity, it must usually be glazed in order to be watertight but its glazes can hold strong colours. Stoneware Jersey Pottery Stoneware is similar in composition to Earthenware but fired at a higher temperature and is therefore heavier, less porous and more hardwearing. Decals A ceramic decal is used at Jersey Pottery to apply designs to ceramic tableware. The decal comprises three layers: the colour, or image, layer which comprises the decorative design; the covercoat, a clear protective layer, which may incorporate a low-melting glass; and the backing paper on which the design is printed by screen printing or lithography.
