Discover the remarkable story of William Moorcroft, widely regarded as one of the greatest ceramic artists of the 20th century, whose beautiful pottery remains highly sought after by collectors around the world. 

Our speaker, James, has been collecting Moorcroft pottery for over 30 years and is an accredited lecturer for the Arts Society. His impressive collection spans William Moorcroft's entire working career (1898–1945), and he will be bringing a selection of original pieces to display during the talk.

A long-standing member of the Moorcroft Collectors' Club, James has visited the pottery many times and has developed an exceptional understanding of both its historic and modern manufacturing techniques.

So comprehensive is James's knowledge that, following one of his lectures, a former Moorcroft board director remarked that they had learned new facts about William Moorcroft themselves!
