Johnson Brothers Pottery
Johnson Brothers Pottery, founded in 1883 in Stoke-on-Trent, England, began as a family venture rooted in tradition and innovation. The four Johnson brothers—Alfred, Frederick, Henry, and Robert—set out to create durable, affordable earthenware that combined beauty with practicality. Their breakthrough came with the introduction of "White Granite," a tough yet elegant ceramic that made fine tableware accessible to the everyday household.
By the early 20th century, Johnson Brothers had become a beloved name in British homes and a major exporter, especially to America. Their designs, like the iconic "Friendly Village" and "Old Britain Castles," mixed pastoral charm with timeless elegance, making them staples at family tables for generations.
Despite changes in ownership—eventually becoming part of Wedgwood and later the Fiskars Group—Johnson Brothers' legacy endures. Production moved overseas in the early 2000s, but collectors and nostalgic hosts still treasure the original English-made pieces.
With roots in the heart of England’s ceramic industry and a legacy of crafting beauty for everyday use, Johnson Brothers Pottery remains a symbol of tradition, resilience, and the warmth of shared meals.
