The Royal Doulton company began as a partnership betweenJohn Doulton, Martha Jones, and John Watts, with a factory at Vauxhall Walk,Lambeth, London trading as Jones, Watts & Doulton in 1815. After Martha Jones left the partnership in 1820, the trade name was changed to Doulton & Watts. The business specialised in makingstonewarearticles, including decorative bottles andsalt glazesewerpipes. The company took the name Doulton & Co. in 1853 after the retirement of John Watts.[1]
By 1871,Henry Doulton, John\'s son, launched astudioat the Lambeth pottery, and offered work to designers and artists from the nearbyLambeth School of Art. The first to be engaged wasGeorge Tinworthfollowed by artists such as the Barlow family (Florence, Hannah, and Arthur), Frank Butler, Mark Marshall and Eliza Simmance. In 1882, Doulton purchased the small factory of Pinder, Bourne & Co, at Nile Street inBurslem, Staffordshire, which placed Doulton in the region known asThe Potteries.

By this time Doulton was popular for stoneware and ceramics, under the artistic direction ofJohn Slater, who worked withfigurines, vases, character jugs, and decorative pieces designed by the prolificLeslie Harradine. Doulton products came to the attention of theRoyal family. In 1901King Edward VIIsold the Burslem factory theRoyal Warrant, allowing the business to adopt new markings and a new name, Royal Doulton. The company added products during the first half of the 20th century while manufacturing fashionable and high-qualitybone china.
The headquarters building and factory of the Royal Doulton ceramics firm were in Lambeth, on the south bank of the Thames. This Art Deco building was designed by T.P.Bennett. In 1939Gilbert Bayescreated the friezes that showed the history of pottery through the ages. The Lambeth factory closed in 1956 due to clean air regulations preventing urban production of salt glaze. Following closure, work was transferred toThe Potteries. The factory building was demolished in 1978 and the friezes transferred to theVictoria & Albert Museum. The office building in Black Prince Road survives, complete with a frieze of potters and Sir Henry Doulton over the original main entrance, executed by Tinworth.[3]
