Furnivals was started in 1839 by Jacob and Thomas Furnival when they took over the building of Phoebe Johnson, at the Stafford Street Pottery Works, Staffordshire. Through the years there have been many name changes, here are just a few: from 1842 to 1843 they were Jacob & Thomas Furnival, from 1844 to 1845 they were Thomas Furnival & Co, from 1876 to 1890 the name was changed to Thomas Furnival & Sons, from 1913 to 1968 they were Furnivals (1913) LTD. Unfortunately, in 1967, Barratt's of Staffordshire acquired them and in 1968, they closed the factory. In 1969 the company's trade name was bought by Enoch Wedgwood, (later they were taken over by the Wedgwood Group). In time Enoch Wedgwood stopped making some of the Furnival patterns, and other patterns were used by different Wedgwood companies so it's a bit confusing dating their patterns after the 1969 acquisition.
