OTHER TEAPOTS - Beswick

Beswick was first established in 1894 at The Gold Street works in Longton, Stoke-on-Trent, producing a wealth of lifelike animal pieces including cats, dogs, farm animals and wildlife. In 1952 the Company began manufacturing a range of Disney characters including Snow White, Mickey Mouse and Bambi.

In 1969 Beswick was sold to Doulton & Co. Ltd (Royal Doulton), 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. Production continued until 2002 when manufacturing ceased and the Gold Street works was demolished in 2003. In 2004 the Beswick name and product design rights were purchased and is now part of the Dartington Crystal group of brands.
