Raven Mason Collection

One of the treasures of the University, this fascinating ceramics collection is displayed in the graceful surroundings of Keele Hall and is open for anyone to visit. It was lovingly created by brothers Ronald William and John Mason Raven. The collection contains many important pieces outlining the development of Mason ceramics in Staffordshire from the beginning of the nineteenth century. Dame Kathleen Raven, also made generous bequests and the entire collection is now on display.
