Festive Pomegranate Round Birch Tray

Emma Bridgewater

£30

Pomegranates stand for life, fertility and good fortune in Greek and Mediterranean Christmas and New Year traditions. Whole pomegranate fruits are used to decorate tables or else smashed on New Year's Day with the seeds scattered for prosperity. Of course, you may only be using our eco-friendly birch tray to ferry mugs of tea back and forth from the kitchen or take plates and cutlery to the table. (It’s a very light tray, so it’s also great for supper on your lap in front of the telly.) And, if using this brightly coloured, festive-looking birch tray to clean up after any pomegranate-smashing,

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as EMMA BRIDGEWATER LIMITED, number 01943787. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Stated by the company: "All our pottery is made from cream-coloured earthenware in our factory in Stoke-on-Trent, the home of British pottery." Source.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
Not established. Many companies file a statement rather than naming a controlling shareholder.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
