A highly skilled artisan copper plate engraver, company founder and chairman August Grove formed the Pottery business in the early 1970ās producing character jugs and figurines, and later the fine bone for which he would become globally renowned. His fine bone china clay (or ābodyā) was made with a blend of bone ash (44%), feldspar (30%) and kaolin clay (26%) to give the product an exquisite translucent appearance; yet it was found to be stronger and more chip resistant than all other porcelain products available. Every August Grove ceramic product is made using a recognised premium grade fine bone china body following the same principles perfected two hundred and thirty years ago.
My sister absolutely Loved this tea for one set!! She uses it all of the time. I was worried it might break during shipping but it was packaged well and was just fine. I will order this again if I need a gift for a single woman.. Anonymous. US. Sun Nov 16 2025
