The pottery was created by the Dauni , a tribe of the Iapygian civilization who came from Illyria . Daunian pottery was mainly produced in the regional production centers of Ordona and Canosa di Puglia, being produced since around 700 BC . The early paintings on the pottery show the vessels with geometric patterns. The ceramics were hand formed. They consisted of red, brown or black earth color applied with the decor. Diamonds, triangles, circles, crosses, squares, arcs, swastika and other forms of art were painted on them. The development of Daunian pottery forms is independent of the first Greek ceramics. Typical Daunian pottery include the Askos, hopper vessels and bowls with loop handles. Striking are often manual, or anthropomorphic Protomen to the sides and handles of the ceramics attached to or reproduced graphically. From the 5th century BC, Daunian pottery is influenced by the Greece Greek forms to an extent that crude human, bird and plant figures are depicted on the pottery. From 350 BC 250 BC the decorative forms change even further. ref http de.wikipedia.org w index.php?title Daunische Vase&action edit ref References Reflist See also Dauni Illyrians Illyrians DEFAULTSORT Daunian Pottery Category Illyrian pottery ... more details

Marshall Pottery operates a 100,000 ft 9,000 m retail store adjacent to its headquarters in Marshall, Texas , which attracts over 500,000 tourists each year. Marshall Pottery was founded by W. F. Rocker in Marshall in 1895. Rocker located the business in East Texas because of its abundant water and white clay deposits. In 1905 Marshall Pottery was acquired by Sam Ellis. With the invention of the glass canning jar and other new competing products in the 1920s, the business almost folded. Prohibition led to a thriving moonshine industry and a need for inexpensive jug container jugs to store the liquor. If not for the sale of jugs during Prohibition, Marshall Pottery would likely have gone bankrupt. In the 1940s, with the discovery of a clay that required a lower fire firing temperature, the pottery began producing flower pots. For many years the company continued to employ potters as its primary means of manufacturing. One of these employees, Pete Payne, became a master potter and displayed his technique at the Smithsonian Institution . Since the construction of a new facility in 1998 most of the pottery s production has been automation automated . However, hand made pottery can still be purchased, and tourists can watch potters create it.

Weller Pottery was founded by Samuel Weller in Fultonham, Ohio , United States in 1872. The original pottery consisted of a small cabin and one kiln. The initial products produced by Weller included flower pots, crocks, bowls, and vases. In 1882, Mr. Weller moved the pottery to Zanesville, Ohio , United States . In 1893, William Long became partners with Weller and moved his Lonhuda Faience Company to Zanesville. Long s partnership with Weller dissolved in less than one year. Weller continued to produce Lonhuda pottery but changed its name to Weller Louwelsa. The Louwelsa name originated from the first three letters Lou of his daughter s name, Louise, and Wel from his last name. The SA was reportedly taken from his initials. After Long s departure from Weller, Charles Babcock Upjohn became the art director for Weller. Mr. Upjohn worked in that position from 1885 to 1904. Upjohn is credited with the introduction of the famous Weller Dickens Ware line. Upjohn left Weller for a short time in 1901 to work at Cambridge Pottery in Cambridge, Ohio . Upjohn left Cambridge in 1902 and returned to Weller until 1904. Jacques Sicard who introduced the metallic luster Sicardo line Frederick Hurten Rhead who developed the Jap Birdimal line during his brief time at the pottery in 1903 4 and John Lessell who created the LaSa line are among the most recognized Weller employees.

Thomas Brannam took over the lease of an existing pottery at North Walk, and another in Litchdon Street Barnstaple. Like other pottery firms of the time the firm originally made utilitarian wares such as basic household ware, floor tiles, bricks and sewage pipes. This was their bread and butter trade although one of his decorative jugs secured a medal at the Great Exhibition in 1851. In 1867 Thomas s son, Charles Hubert Brannam, left school to start work at the pottery aged 12. Charles was very artistic. He had won a prize for art at school and also won the Queen s Prize for Drawing in 1870. He became educated in the theory and practice of ceramics. Charles was encouraged by a local dignitary Mr William Frederick Rock who invited him to London where he studied pottery in the various museums. In 1879 he persuaded his father to allow him to produce art ware. To begin with his father agreed only provided that Charles paid for the materials he used.
