This series of delicate and beautiful floral illustrations pioneered a new trend in casual dining tableware in the 1970s. While new patterns have continuously emerged, the classic elegance and beauty of the Botanic Garden series remain deeply beloved. The current crystal glassware collection, featuring floral engravings for an elegant and chic aesthetic, has garnered widespread consumer acclaim! https://queen-living.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/PMG_image.jpg -PORTMEIRION Group- In 1960, the legendary ceramic design icon, Susan Williams-Ellis, along with her husband Euan Cooper-Willis, consolidated two previously acquired pottery companies and factories to establish Portmeirion Potteries. Susan initially designed ceramic gifts for their home, the village of Portmeirion, at her father's request. As these gifts became increasingly popular, she acquired the pottery companies and factories, which allowed her to design the shapes and patterns of the ceramics herself. In the 1970s, Susan's most iconic and beloved series – Botanic Garden – was born. Inspired by antique botanical books discovered by chance, the unique and exquisite floral designs of Botanic Garden presented a casual, home-style aesthetic distinct from the formal dinnerware of the time. Upon its release, it was enthusiastically welcomed worldwide and became an icon of British design, still recognized today as one of the most popular tableware designs. Despite her immense success, Susan remained true to her goal of creating beautiful, functional, and affordable tableware. She personally oversaw the manufacturing process, maintaining Portmeirion's high quality and continuously introducing beloved collections. Although Susan passed away in 2007, her lifelong design philosophy – not only beautiful but also functional and affordable – will continue to guide Portmeirion forward.
