Ridgway Potteries

Ridgway Potteries was a British pottery manufacturer of Stoke-on-Trent that produced mainly high quality earthenware from 1790s through to the mid twentieth century.[1]

The firm was established by Job Ridgway (1759-1813) and his brother George (c. 1758-1823), who together established a factory at Hanley in 1794. Popular products included Cauldron Ware, much of which was exported to the United States,[2] and in the later twentieth century Homemaker tableware.

Ridgway Pottery later merged with the Booths & Colclough China Company during the 1940s, and later became a part of Royal Doulton in 1972.
