Goss

Manufactured: 1858 to 1940

William Henry Goss was a student at the School of Design at Somerset House in London, from where in 1857 he was employed as chief artist of the Stoke upon Trent firm of William Taylor Copeland. W. T. Copeland eventually bought the business interests of his partner Josiah Spode. Shortly after, in 1858, William started his own business in Stoke upon Trent.


William Henry Goss and his eldest son Adolphus met the demand for affordable souvenirs with a range of small white porcelain models of historic shapes decorated with coats of arms.  Goss china collecting became a craze in Victorian and Edwardian times. By 1910 the craze was at its height. Models range from tea services to parian figures to pots and jugs.
