Set in Ironstone
Last week, you got a peek into my armoire and saw my ironstone china collection. As you well know, my philosophy is that ideally, something should be both beautiful to look at as well as functional! The appellation “Ironstone China” embodies this idea. Charles James Mason patented his “Ironstone China” in 1813 in Britain. It…
