A bit more on Kevin Francis:
"Founded by Kevin Pearson & Francis Salmon, Kevin Francis ceramics has become known for its exceptionally high quality and creativity in figural art pottery.
Initially focusing on Toby Jugs with designs created and inspired by order the partners, the company quickly established itself amongst collectors.
Kevin & Francis initially commissioned their work from Royal Doulton. Following their first release, they entered into an exclusive partnership with Peggy and Rhodri Davies to produce all their designs through their facility, Peggy Davies Ceramics.
Despite being launched during a recession, the small company survived and by the early 90's, it was focusing on the British Pottery heritage with its Toby Jug collection. This Collection was a real test for the production artistry of Peggy Davies Ceramics and the results were superb.
Also during the 1990's, the company started to develop their first figurines, building around the theme of Art Deco and the works of Clarice Cliff and Susie Cooper in particular. Made in Staffordshire, England.
