Have occupied 19 South Audley Street since 1845 and first opened their doors to Mayfairs retail customers back in 1875. Designed by Ernest George, 19 South Audley Street was transformed into Londons foremost tableware emporium by Thomas Goodes son, the enterprising William Goode, who travelled the world not just in search of the finest porcelain and bone china designs, but also providing a uniquely personal service to Europes great families; in the process endowing the business with a calibre of clientèle that endures to this day.

Is very proud of its long standing relationship with the British Royal Family which still continues today. In recent times Thomas Goode & Co. Has provided bespoke china for Queen Elizabeth II and was commissioned in 1981 to create a dinner service as a gift to Their Royal Highnesses, the Prince and Princess of Wales on the occasion of their wedding. Always a Mayfair landmark, the twin Elephants of Thomas Goode & Co. Have stood sentinel over South Audley Street since Victorian times and most recently one was lent as the centrepiece of the Sculpture Victorious exhibition at Tate Britain, in 2015.

Originally commissioned to stand at the entrance of Thomas Goode& Cos court at The Paris Universal Exhibition of 1889, the Elephants of Thomas Goode & Co. Were the largest commissions ever undertaken by the Minton pottery. These graceful animals stand 7ft tall, complete with ceramic howdahs and carved ebony stands, and are a tour de force of the potters art; and continue to be synonymous with the Thomas Goode & Co. Brand and with Mayfair itself to this day. Once the exhibition was over, the elephants were brought to Thomas Goode & Co. Where they have been on display ever since. Whilst the elephants are not for sale, the Thomas Goode showrooms are as rich in fabulously breathtaking china and porcelain as when the elephants first arrived all those years ago; and if they dont give cause enough to visit the showrooms, Thomas Goodes showrooms might give you the perfect reason to explore what else is on display inside the store alongside say hello to the two magnificent beasts that stand either side of the entrance to welcome you.
