Brothers Colin and Desmond Rawson established Hornsea Potteries in 1949. The pottery quickly transformed itself from a supplier of tourist souvenirs from the coast to the largest studio pottery in the world, employing over 700 people, thanks to a wide range of design influences. The widespread popularity and inspirational design of Hornsea contributed to its rapid expansion. Hornsea Pottery developed novel and ground-breaking designs and techniques, many of which were influenced by the Rawsons' textile backgrounds, despite its location in Staffordshire, away from the traditional ceramics heartland. Hornsea is a great British design story that involves some of the biggest names in British pattern and ceramic design, like John Clappison. Today, Hornsea Pottery is still a popular and influential brand that has an appeal that lasts forever.
