Alfred Meakin Ltd Pottery was a British company that produced earthenware and semi-porcelain tableware, tea sets, and toilet ware from 1875 to 1976.[1] The company was founded by Alfred Meakin, the brother of James and George Meakin who ran a large pottery company in Hanley, Stoke-on-Trent.[2][3] Alfred Meakin operated from the Royal Albert, Victoria, and Highgate Potteries in Tunstall[4] and later acquired the Newfield Pottery and the Furlong Mill.[1][5] The company was known for its ironstone china and white granite ware, which were exported to many countries, especially the USA.[5][6] The company also made decorative wares with various patterns and shapes, such as Bamboo, Fishhook, Chelsea, and Bleu de Roi.[5] The company was bought by Robert Johnson, Alfred's uncle, for his son Stuart Johnson in 1908, and remained in the Johnson family until 1976, when it became part of Myott-Meakin and later Churchill Group[5] A tile from 1901 is held by the British Museum[4] and a dinner service is held by Canterbury Museum[7] and work is in the National Trust Art collection.[8] Work is held by the Science Museum Group[9] and the V&A.[10]
