The firm excelled in both domestic and export markets, producing richly decorated tableware and ornamental pieces that reflected classical, Renaissance, and Aesthetic Movement influences. They were especially noted for their innovation in printed and relief-moulded designs, and their work often featured elaborate patterns, including Italianate and neo-Rococo styles.
