Fearncombe, Wolverhampton’ and registration lozenge to the base, 53cm high Henry Fearncombe was born in Taunton, Somerset, in 1791. The earliest reference to him in Wolverhampton is in a trade directory of 1828/29, which shows him as a Japanner and Tin Plate Worker of 105 Walsall Street. The entry suggests that he was not an employee but working on his own account. An 1833 trade directory has Fearncombe at Dudley Road and this was to be the address of his firm until its final demise. The company’s main business, from the start, seems to have been Japanning and tin plate work and it seems that, somewhat unusually for Wolverhampton japanners, though not for Bilston japanner, they japanned exclusively on tin plate and not on papier mache. The 1850 trade directory refers to him as a producing japanned and fancy goods; and the directory for 1861 refers to Fearncombe as a, ‘’manufacturer of japanned iron, strong black tin wares and baths of every description”. But thereafter the trade directories are more concise, limiting their description to, ‘’japanner”. Fearncombe exhibited at the Great Exhibition of 1851, which shows that the firm was well established and confident. The, ‘’coal vases” they exhibited were well received by the critics at the time. After Henry’s death in 1856, “the works passed through various hands, and are now carried on by a company under the name of Henry Fearncombe and Co. Limited”. In 1902 the business was sold to Orme Evans. £2000-£3000 440. A Roman lidded twin handled circular pottery jar and case, ribbed circular cover, 17cm diameter £50-£70
