Based in Stoke-on-Trent, 1882 Ltd. was founded in 2011 by fifth generation ceramics family, Emily Johnson and her father Christopher, as a design-driven ceramics company focused on a progressive, innovative and dynamic ethos that marries traditional skills with contemporary thought and silhouette. Producing essential objects and limited edition pieces, 1882 Ltd highlights the centuries of industrial heritage craft expertise that resides in the heart of the British ceramics industry, Stoke-on-Trent. Collaborating with creative visionaries such as Shona Heath, Max Lamb, Bruce McLean and John Pawson, 1882 Ltd. successfully manages to bridge the gap between contemporary works of art, and functional, design driven products made for everyday use.

For their debut at 3daysofdesign 2024, 1882 Ltd will be showing for the first time their latest collaboration with British furniture designer, Max Lamb - Crockery Pink - a full, open edition collection of tableware and limited edition Big Vase. Building on many years of successful collaboration, Crockery Pink Big Vase will form part of 1882 Ltd's Icon Collection, a body of work that encompasses the impossible, the oversized, the complex and the unique, imagined and made in collaboration with the art and design world’s most respected and renowned designers and studios. Crockery Pink reimagines the rough, hewn texture of the Crockery collections with bold colours, contrasting the functionality with vibrancy and joy.
