The perfect collection for contemporary living, make everyday a beautiful day with Sophie Conran for Portmeirion tableware. Developed by Sophie Conran, the collection is delicate and practical, and each piece is able to withstand the rigors of modern life moving with ease from the table to the dishwasher, the freezer to the oven - even the mugs. Portmeirion was founded in 1960 by the legendary pottery designer Susan Williams-Ellis and her husband Euan Cooper-Willis. Susan passed away in November 2007 but her philosophy of creating collections that are not only beautiful but also functional and affordable lives on at Portmeirion. Always at the forefront of contemporary design, Susan Williams-Ellis was renowned for her originality in both design and manufacturing techniques. This has led to her enviable reputation for producing striking shape and pattern designs that were trend setting and had worldwide appeal – designs that are now seen as iconic.
