Among the most popular of the English porcelain factories among collectors is Royal Worcester. The Worcester porcelain company was founded in 1751.
The First Period of Worcester (1751-76) is sometimes called the Dr. Wall period after John Wall, one of the founders and major shareholders. During this period, Worcester was using the formula for soft paste porcelain which was obtained when they took over Lund's Bristol Porcelain works in 1752.
Worcester also introduced the use of transfer printing on porcelain in 1757, which reduced the need for hand painting which was time consuming and expensive.

Thomas Bott (1829 - 1870) worked as a porcelain painter and designer at the Royal Worcester porcelain factory in Worcester, England in the mid- to late-19th century. During this period, Worcester was one of the most important porcelain manufacturers in England, and Thomas Bott was involved in the production of a wide range of porcelain wares, including tableware, figurines, and vases. He is credited with creating the Limoges enamel style inspired by the medieval enamels created in that city. The style was revived in the 19th century.
