Maker:Beswick/Royal Albert Procelain
Maker Bio:John Beswick Ltd, formerly J W Beswick, was a pottery manufacturer, founded in 1892 by James Wright Beswick and his sons John and Gilbert in Longton, Stoke-on-Trent. In 1969, the business was sold to Doulton & Co Ltd and although animal figures continued to be produced, by 1989 the Beswick backstamp was dropped in favour of the Royal Doulton, Royal Albert DA backstamp. The factory closed in 2002 and the brand John Beswick was sold in 2004. The pottery was chiefly known for producing high quality porcelain figurines such as farm animals and Beatrix Potter characters and have become highly sought after in the collectables market.
