Photographs showing a typical range of bone china mugs with bespoke designs that we have specially produced during the last year or two for Customers - to give you some ideas on the scope of possibilities and what you can ask us to do for you - for your fund-raising, for your promotion, for your restaurant, for your shop sales - whatever it is that you are seeking to do. All of these mugs have been decorated via the manual application of ceramic decals (waterslide transfers), followed by firing at above 800°C for everlasting permanence and outstanding dish-washer resistance. Only the Barrs Court School mug is printed in what we term simple line-and-block-colour. All of the others, including that for Torch Trust, feature extremely delicate precision-printed halftone printing of these decals, a Chown China speciality developed over many years' research, giving beautiful rendering of a full range of tones of each colour printed. All Chown China's decal printing is carried out day in, day out, with this same high degree of precision and attention to detail, and when combined with the high quality in-house artistry, the resulting product is unmatched for value-for-money.
