Our story began in 1759 when our founder, Josiah Wedgwood I aged just twenty-nine started as an independent potter in Burslem, England. Fast forward over 260 years and were still producing many of the materials he invented, such as Jasper, Queens Ware and Black Basalt. Discover the full story of Wedgwood and our unique history on this page or visit us at the World of Wedgwood at our home in Barlaston for an interesting day out.
