The name Royal Crown Derby has become synonymous with everything that is exceptional in the fascinating world of fine bone china. Today's sought-after range of intricately decorated paperweights is the culmination of over two hundred years of work by generations of talented craftsmen and artists.

The collection of paperweights continues Royal Crown Derby's tradition of adapting the old oriental colours and motifs with creative ingenuity. Not only are the pieces beautifully sculpted, they also show dramatic use of symbolism in the decoration: for example, the Indian ornaments on the contemporary Mother and Baby elephants and the artistic details of fur and feathers on animals and birds.

The Paperweight Collection is magnificent as a whole, but within it there are several groups of creatures which make beautiful small collections in their own right, including birds, cats and splendid wildlife and countryside animals.
