Coalport was a leading porcelain maker with some of the most sought after artisans and craftsmen. Coalport, Shropshire, England was a centre of porcelain and pottery production between about 1795 and 1926, with the Coalport Porcelain brand continuing to be used up to the present. The opening in 1792 of the Coalport Canal, which joins the River Severn at Coalport, had increased the attractiveness of the site.
Coalport factory made mostly tablewares that had elaborate overglaze decoration, mostly with floral subjects. A further round of mergers in 1819 brought moulds and skilled staff from Nantgarw porcelain and Swansea Porcelain to Coalbrookdale, which continued to thrive through the rest of the century. The Coalport factory was founded by John Rose in 1795; he continued to run it successfully until his death in 1841.
