[QUOTE="bluemoon, post: 141516, member: 1296"]So.. some of you may remember in around 2008-2009 they announced that the wedgwood production would be moved to Indonesia for the most part, except the blue-and-white jasperware. I just bought a new Wedgwood tea set (sweet plum) and in all the pieces the bar code sticker says: "Made in United Kingdom" Why? Are some products still made there or are these perhaps from the time before 2009 or whenever the change of production happened? They don't say "Made in" anything in the bottom of the pieces, just like the Indonesian ones, I've heard. Of course I love the fact that they weren't made outside Europe but I'm just confused. The Wedgwood website only gives some round no-answer answers about the countries of origin of their current production. Help[/QUOTE]
