The following is information supplied to me by another collector and detailed from previous listing and research.
HOWSON pottery company founded by George Howson in 1865 which continued to operate as a family owned business until 1966 when it was taken over by Shanks. Howsons were primarily a sanitary ware maker. The Howson family and the Taylor family were close kin, and it is probable that the Taylors held shares in the Howson pottery. William Howson Taylor gained some of his early training work there before joining the family firm RUSKIN founded by his father Edward Richard Taylor.
The Howson Factory at Hanley did make some experimental Flambe wares from about 1912 under the stewardship of Richard Howson ( William Howson Taylors cousin) with the help of Edward Wilkes a former employee of Bernard Moore. Both of these individuals coincidentally were visitors to the Ruskin factory
at West Smethwick.
These vases are quite rare as they were only made for a few years. Consequently they carry a price premium. If you look at the way the pot is signed, you will see that it is very similar to the way that Bernard Moore signed his work and later copied by Edward Wilkes, who worked with Moore before setting up the Howson pottery with Richard Howson.
It is believed that the Howson factory only ran for a couple years from around 1912
Low start
International note I only send by signed service which for this will be £55 for this due to size
