Royal Doulton Crystal – Background
Royal Doulton is an English heritage brand founded in 1815 in London.
The company originally specialized in fine ceramics, and later expanded into lead crystal glassware during the mid-20th century. Royal Doulton crystal lines were produced mainly from the 1960s through the early 2000s, often in Europe (including England and later in Germany and Ireland).
The crystal pieces were hand-cut or machine-cut depending on the era and price tier.
