What is "cornishware"

Cornishware is a striped kitchenware brand trademarked to and manufactured by T.G. Green & Co Ltd.

Originally introduced in the 1920s and manufactured in Church Gresley, Derbyshire, it was a huge success for the company and in the succeeding 30 years it was exported around the world. The company ceased production in June 2007 when the factory closed under the ownership of parent company The Tabletop Group. The range was revived in 2009 after T.G. Green was bought by a trio of British investors.
