Arms were granted to the new county borough in 1912. They were made up of devices previously used by the constituent six towns, although only Burslem actually received a grant to use arms.
Description of the City Arms:
"Argent [silver], a cross gules, fretty or [fretted with gold], between in the first quarter a representation of the Portland Vase; in the second a camel kneeling proper, charged on the body with an escutcheon argent [silver shield], thereon a cross gules [red cross]; in the third an eagle displayed sable; and in the fourth a scythe also proper, on a chief of the second a boar's head erased between two Stafford Knots of the third.
Crest - on a wreath of the colours, a Potter of ancient Egypt at his wheel argent."
