The Caughley Society was formed in 1999. Its aims are to educate the public in the subject of Caughley porcelains, to promote research and study in all matters relating to Caughley porcelain and to disseminate the useful knowledge gained for the public benefit.
The Society holds two meetings annually, in April and October, at the Coalport China Museum site near Ironbridge in Shropshire, England, home of arguably the best Caughley collection in the world. These comprise talks, discussions, opportunities to study representative pieces, and give a chance for members to socialise. To find out more about these, please click on the 'MEETINGS PROGRAMME' button on the left of this page.
The Society also publishes four newsletters a year, distributed free to members. To read more about these, please click on the 'NEWSLETTERS' button on the left of this page.
