Palissy Pottery was founded in 1946 in Longton, Stoke-on-Trent and made earthenwares. Prior to this the trade name was used by A. E Jones (Longton) Ltd who began in about 1905 and traded from Palissy Pottery from 1930.

Spode and Royal Worcester merged to form a new company in July 1976 known as Royal Worcester Spode. In 1958 The Royal Worcester Porcelain Company had bought Palissy.

Palissy was closed in 1989 and the pottery was demolished in August of that year.

Aynsley China Ltd of Sutherland Road, Longton, Stoke-on-Trent, unconnected with Spode and Worcester, bought the trade name of Palissy in August 1989.

Spode has very little archive concerning Palissy which comprises only about half a dozen catalogues.

One of the patterns popular produced by Palissy was Game Birds and a very similar pattern is produced by Spode today called Woodland
