Gibson & Sons (Ltd), Burslem UK (1885 - 1975) were earthenware manufacturers and producers of dinner and tea wares, they were particularly known for teapot manufacture. Around 1907-1910 they manufactured the 'Largest Teapot in the world'. This held 1024 cups of tea!

The fact firm was previously Gibson & Sudlow. Gibson & Sons became a limited company in 1905 and then traded as Gibson & Sons Ltd and occupied a number of works (some of them concurrently).

In 1885 they occupied the Harvey Pottery, Lingard Street, Burslem, which they occupied 1885 - 1957.

At the same time (1885) they occupied the Albany Pottery, Moorland Road, Burslem until 1965.

For a short period (c.1925 - 1930) they also used the Chelsea Works, Moorland Road, Burslem and then Susie Copper took these works.

In 1965 the Albany Pottery were too large for them and the business was moved to Howard Pottery, Norfolk Street, Shelton (with Royal Winton).
