James Caldwell (1759-1838) and Enoch Wood (1759-1840) were in partnership from 1791 to 1818 as Wood & Caldwell. Their factory was a major concern and produced a large amount of china but it is difficult to know exactly what they produced and how much as very little of it was marked. Enoch Wood specialised in Staffordshire Figures and we can assume that a large part of their production was a wide variety of figures that were produced in large numbers.

Tankard jug

Impressed mark WOOD & CALDWELL.

Small jug

This small jug was passed down in the Caldwell family and has a small note underneath saying that it was dug up in the garden at Linley Wood October 1923. It is quite unusual in that the surface is not shiny and I think is referred to as ‘blue jasper’. Impressed mark 'WOOD & CALDWELL'. The jug is very small and may have been a toy made for a child.
