Johnson Bros "Indian Tree"

Johnson Brothers Indian Tree belongs to one of the best known design traditions in British tableware. Indian Tree patterns were produced by many different makers, with the earliest well-known versions usually associated with Coalport in the early 19th century. Johnson Brothers produced its own affordable and widely used version over many years, making it a familiar sight in homes across Britain and beyond.

For customers looking to replace a broken dinner plate, add extra bowls, find a teapot, or build up a larger service, Johnson Brothers Indian Tree remains a practical and collectable discontinued pattern. The design was made over a long period, and older and later pieces may vary in body, colour, border detail, shape and backstamp, so careful matching is worthwhile.

Indian Tree is a pattern where maker matters, as similar designs were produced by several potteries. If you are comparing pieces, it is worth checking both the Johnson Brothers backstamp and the exact shape. We have written more about the wider history of the design in our Indian Tree tableware pattern guide.

As with many discontinued Johnson Brothers ranges, availability varies by piece. If you are trying to complete, extend or carefully match an existing Indian Tree set, please check our current stock regularly as individual pre-loved pieces become available.
