As Britain celebrates Queen Elizabeth's Platinum Jubilee, we're letting our inner anglophile get carried away by all things British. English design is known — above all — for quality at the highest level. Whether it’s bone china or stainless steel, English makers proudly fuse their heritage with fearless modernism for a result that’s innovative and always fresh, if not downright cheeky. We’re profiling our favourite British designers today, and if you're inclined towards a little cheer,  join us in raising a glass or a favourite cuppa, to Her Majesty and everything English.
