Ravenhead The Ravenhead glass factory was founded in 1842 in St Helens, England by Frances Dixon. The family run business expanded rapidly and was passed down from father to son for three generations. Primarily producing bottles, Ravenhead branched out into domestic tableware such as bowls, jugs and drinking glasses in the 1930s. Between 1960 and 1990, it designed many iconic glasses for the bar and catering industry. Single-handedly changing the perception of glass from a functional item, to a fashionable statement for the kitchen and home, Ravenhead continues to pioneer solutions within the glasswares industry. High profile designers such as Alexander Hardie Williamson shaped the Ravenhead range, producing iconic designs which are still well recognised today. Viners With over a century of cutlery manufacturing experience, Viners is a highly distinguished, trusted and much-loved brand, steeped in British heritage. The illustrious cutlery brand dates back to Sheffield, England in 1908.

From a small silverware specialist, they grew to be the biggest silver, silver-plated and stainless steel kitchenware producer in the UK. With a reputation for high quality products, Viners was issued with a Royal Warrant as Cutlers and Silversmiths to King George V of England. They continued to expand and grow their range nationally and internationally and were the biggest cutlery manufacturer during the mid-century.

Innovation and design development are intrinsic values associated with the brand, with notable product designs spanning over 50 years. Current day, the brand offers shapes and patterns which reflect what consumers are looking for from contemporary to classic dining ranges which feel great in the hand and are practical to use.
