Abstract:

This thesis sets out to give contemporary commercial context to a luxury business, whose products have been traditionally studied as art-objects. The provincial firm, under the Duesburys, was the country's pre-eminent producer of fine porcelain from c. 1770, a position no other domestic manufactory rivalled for twenty years. But its success was not easily achieved: the proprietors regularly adapted their business. This work identifies such changes, and seeks to establish their causes: were they proprietorially led, or a reaction to some external influence? Importantly, the Duesburys' domination coincided with a period of general industrial and commercial transition, when luxury crafts were in decline, but before mass-production; when the capital was losing its industry to newer, specialised regional production centres like Staffordshire; and when London no longer dominated the fashionable market, as provincial towns became increasingly gentrified. Distinct themes are analysed: the nature of the luxury market and the role of fine ceramics (the growth of 'alternative' consumer luxuries and the middle-class market, combined with the shift from rococo to neoclassical design); marketing and distribution, and the role of the Duesburys' London showroom (the manager's letters and accounts provide rare detail on sales); fashionable ceramics and the competition and cooperation within the fine-ceramic sector (notably the competition from France after the 1786 trade treaty, and relationships with Wedgwood and Flight of Worcester); the location of the Derby China Works, and the sourcing of raw materials (including communications and the role of the Derby Philosophical Society); and human and financial resources. While porcelain production did not benefit from macro-inventions like, for example, the textile industry, the Duesburys' relatively small-volume luxury manufacture allowed a sophisticated use of the infrastructure of the early Industrial Revolution. By contrast, Duesbury II's partner, Kean, during the extended war years, was later obliged to exert more commercial rigour and scale to the firm.

Abstract:

The paper outlines the history of the extraction of power from the River Derwent in Derbyshire, England, a source of abundant, reliable and vigorous water flow; and how this renewable power source provided power for the industrialization of what were formerly cottage occupations. The Romans introduced Water Wheels to Britain in the 1st century, which were used in the Derwent Valley to grind grist, mine lead, power iron forges and pump water. The prototype factories of the Industrial Revolution were built here, utilizing water power technology to drive textile mills. Cotchett’s Silk Mill, built in Derby in 1702, was followed by Lombe’s Silk Mill nearby in 1717, Then followed the cotton industry, led by Arkwright and Strutt in Cromford, the first “modern” mill, with 200 hands and round-the-clock operations, in 1771. After this success, Strutt built a larger mill in 1782 at Belper, powered by eleven 21 ft diameter water wheels. Samuel Slater, apprenticed during the building of this mill, emigrated secretly to America, where he enabled the first successful U.S cotton mill to be built in Pawtucket, R.I. The skills and traditions remain in the area, in such notable companies as Rolls-Royce and the Royal Crown Derby Porcelain works.
