Green was founded by Thomas Goodwin Green in 1864. One of the company’s most popular lines has always been Cornishware which was first produced in 1924. The blue and white stripes were inspired by the blue skies and white-crested waves of Cornwall, which is how Cornishware got its name. The appearance of those familiar blue and white stripes in children’s books, adverts, fashion magazines, collector’s websites and homes all over the world is testament to Cornishware’s timeless design and enduring popularity. From plates to cups to storage jars, Cornishware was such a roaring success that it soon became a household name, adorning dinner tables up and down the country. Sadly the original TG Green pottery in Church Gresley, Swadlincote was closed in 2007, but a group of enthusiasts rescued the business. It is now based in Batcombe, near Bruton in Somerset and whilst production has been in China for the last 10 years TG Green is now manufacturing part of the range back in Somerset. The range consists of a full range of blue and white plus red and white tableware and cookware, with everything from teapots to plates to mixing bowls. There is also a range of mugs in a variety of colours that can be personalised.
