We are avid collectors and lovers of the T.G.Green brand and are constantly on the lookout for items (jars, jugs, cups, plates bowls), that we think will interest you, whether that be early examples or up-to-date items such as the 2022 Jubilee mug. We are pleased to always have T.G.Green vintage Cornishware and other ranges for sale on our site.



T.G.Green History Cornishware

Q: Where did the company originate? 

T.G.Green was founded in 1864 by Thomas Goodwin Green. It is believed that he bought an existing pottery in Church Gresley whilst he was in Scarborough on his honeymoon.

Q: Where did the company produce its products? 

T.G.Green pottery was produced in Church Gresley in South Derbyshire from 1864 until 2007. With that pottery, closed products were produced abroad. However, the company is currently re-introducing manufacture into Stoke-on-Trent and products are decorated in the West Country.

Q: Who owns the company? 

The company was rescued in 2007 by three British entrepreneurs who believed in the enduring quality of its products. The current Directors (2022) are father and daughter Charles and Rebecca Rickards. T.G. Green & Co Ltd is a private limited company.
