Enoch Wedgwood (a distant cousin of Josiah Wedgwood) became a partner in Podmore, Walker & Co. in 1835 and in 1856 the business was renamed Podmore, Walker, Wedgwood & Co.  Following the death of Thomas Podmore in 1860, Enoch Wedgwood inherited shares in the interests of the business left to him by Podmore, the partnership was dissolved and became Wedgwood & Co but the company continued to make the popular Asiatic Pheasants pattern. This tureen was probably made in c1925. 
 
In beautiful condition, this large bowl planted up with seasonal Hellebores would make the perfect fruit bowl or salad bowl, but works equally well as a planter.
 
The hellebores will flower all winter and can be planted out into the garden for next season making this such a sustainable way to send someone a special present.  Carefully packaged with a personalised card, provenance and plant care instructions, this is shipped overnight with Royal Mail Tracked 24.
