One of Wedgwood's most important creations is creamware. Wedgwood's creamware was revolutionary in that it introduced true fine china into the market. In 1765, King George III's wife, Queen Charlotte, solicited Wedgwood to be "Potter to His and Her Majesty." As a result of his new title, Wedgwood changed the official name of his creamware to "Queen's Ware." Josiah Wedgwood died in 1795 and left a china empire to his sons and daughters. None of his children wanted to abandon their place in English society to return and manage the Etruria factory and village. The daily goings on of Wedgwood was left to Josiah's nephew, Tom Byerly. In a state of financial desperation, Wedgwood's London showrooms were closed. Josiah's oldest son, John, returned to the factory in 1800. In 1805, he requested the presence of his younger brother Josiah II. In 1953, Wedgwood began opening "Wedgwood Rooms" in department stores throughout the US. The marketing technique quickly advanced the custom of registering for a fine bone china before one's wedding. Today, Wedgwood continues its expansion.
