It wasn't until 1930 that they began producing hard porcelain. Subsequently, they introduced painting and gilding techniques from the Mintons and Royal Worcester factories, and even engaged Japanese artists to design products for the Japanese market. In 1917, U.S. President Wilson commissioned seventeen hundred sets of ivory white porcelain for official White House state dinners. This distinction brought Lenox widespread acclaim and solidified its reputation for practical, elegant tableware.
