Height: 14" Width: 7" Depth: 6" NOTE: Founded by Simon Fielding in the 1870's and originally named the Railway Works, located on Sutherland St., Stoke on Trent. After a few years, Fielding was having severe monetary difficulties when his son Abraham stepped in and rescued the company from financial ruin. Increased production as well as expansion of various painted earthenware and majolica wares led to the company's success. By 1912, the Railway Works name was changed to The Devon Pottery and Fielding began the popular Crown Devon label. Production continued until 1982 when the company was forced to close its doors.
