Origin & Maker
Founded in 1898 in Staffordshire, England, Myott, Son & Co. became a key player in the British pottery industry, known for producing affordable yet stylish ceramics. Based in the Stoke-on-Trent area, famous for its pottery heritage, Myott's designs became popular for their vibrant hand-painted patterns and accessible tableware.
The company is most famous for its Art Deco designs, particularly the "Myott Art Deco" line, which featured bold geometric patterns and bright colors. Another significant pattern in Myott's repertoire was the “Indian Tree,” inspired by traditional Asian designs and a favorite among collectors. The pattern, with its delicate floral motifs, added an exotic touch to British homes and became one of Myott's most recognizable creations.
Myott also produced other iconic designs like the “Imari” pattern, characterized by intricate Japanese-inspired motifs. The company continued its success well into the 20th century, eventually merging with Alfred Meakin Ltd in the 1970s. Despite changes in ownership, Myott's legacy endures, particularly for collectors seeking out its Art Deco pieces and “Indian Tree” pattern, which remain highly collectible for their historical and artistic significance.
