Item Details

Wonderful shaped terracotta urn, complete with terracotta pedestal, fully stamped J Armitage & Son Circa 1874. Comes in three parts as photgraphed for ease of movement. Great condition other than the odd nibble, see photographs.


A really great piece with wonderful provenance for a creative garden display.


Around 1850 John Armitage purchased a small brick and tile works from W. J. & R. Turner and quickly turned it into a thriving business. In 1874 his son Charles came into the business and the firm became known as J. Armitage & Son. In 1878 the name changed again to J. Armitage & Sons when another son, Alfred, entered the business. John Armitage died in 1890 and the business was continued by his sons until 1903 when due to financial problems it was taken over by The Armitage Works Co. Ltd. The original business had offices in both Sheffield and Manchester.
