This collection of delicate and beautiful floral and botanical illustrations pioneered a new trend in casual dining ware in the 1970s. While new patterns are continually introduced, the classic elegance and beauty of the Botanic Garden series remain deeply cherished by the public. The currently offered crystal glass series, with its elegantly carved floral designs, has garnered widespread consumer acclaim! https://queen-living.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/PMG_image.jpg -PORTMEIRION Group- In 1960, the legendary ceramic designer Ms. Susan Williams-Ellis, along with her husband Euan Cooper-Willis, integrated two previously acquired pottery companies and factories to establish Portmeirion Potteries. Susan initially designed ceramic gifts for their residence in Portmeirion Village 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 collection – the Botanic Garden series – was born. Inspired by antique botanical books discovered by chance, the unique and exquisite floral designs of Botanic Garden presented a departure from the formal dinnerware of the time, embodying a casual, home-style aesthetic. Upon its launch, it received enthusiastic worldwide acclaim 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 Ms. Susan passed away in 2007, her lifelong design philosophy – not only beautiful but also functional and affordable – will continue to guide Portmeirion forward.
