North Staffordshire Potters with the initials T W






 

There were a number of North Staffordshire potters with the initials T.W. who were operating around the first half of the 19th century. 

Geoffrey Godden (Encyclopaedia of British Pottery & Porcelain Marks) lists the following: 

 

Thomas Wright Hanley c.1822-5
Thomas Williams Stoke c.1827
Thomas White Hanley c.1840-1
Thomas Worthington Hanley c.1842
Thomas Walker Tunstall c.1845-51
Thomas Wynne Longton c.1846-54

 

 

Examples of ware with the initials TW:

SIMLA is the pattern name
