He was a classic Victorian gentleman industrialist, combining ownership of the factory with a career in politics and public life, as an MP and as Lord Mayor of London. Under the Copelands, the factory vied with its neighbour Minton in making some of the most spectacular ceramics wares of the age. Gifted artists, such as Charles Ferdinand Hürten, were imported from continental factories and superb pieces were exhibited at the Great Exhibition of London 1851 and International Exhibitions in London 1862 and Paris 1878.
