Peter & Marie Graves

Peter and Marie Graves started freehand painting on porcelain and fine bone china at Coalport China in Longton, Stoke-on-Trent. They worked mainly on Coalport's prestige pieces, many of which have been sold all over the world.

After leaving Coalport in 1980, Peter and Marie became associated with the Gladstone Pottery Museum in Longton. Here they demonstrate the art of free-hand painting on porcelain and fine china. Over the last few years they have been commissioned to paint pieces for presentation to Her Royal Highness Princess Margaret, President Carter of the United States and Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.

Many of their commissions today include portraits of dogs, cats, houses, yachts and horses. They take great pride in producing pieces that will become tomorrow's antiques and they feel that their free-hand painted china and porcelain will be passed on to the next generation of discerning collectors with pride.
