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.

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, 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.
