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. Weller continued to produce art pottery until the company went out of business in 1948.

Orphan date August 2011 Scarborough Pottery was instigated in 1964 by Peter Hough who had originally attended Scarborough, North Yorkshire Scarborough Art College. After attending college in Manchester, he then taught art in Accrington and Guildford before returning to Scarborough to set up the Pottery. The pottery used a variety of venues in the Scarborough and North Yorkshire area, in Newborough, Scalby Mills, Gladstone Lane, Scalby and finally Laundry Road in Filey . They specialised in novelty and souvenir items and their products can still be found in antique centres, fairs and shops all over Britain. Scarborough Pottery closed in 1983 following a down turn in the ceramics industry. The nearby Hornsea Pottery donated moulds to Peter Hough and many of Hornsea s designers, modellers and technicians including Alan Luckham and Mike Walker contributed their time and expertise to the smaller enterprise. A number of designs by John Clappison were adapted for use at Scarborough Pottery. ref cite web url http www.pccl.karoo.net Hornsea 20Pottery 20FAQs.htm title Hornsea Pottery Frequently Ask Questions publisher Pauline Coyle accessdate 2009 06 17 ref Many collectors of Hornsea Pottery also collect Scarborough due to this interrelation although it is often difficult to identify Scarborough Pottery, particularly as very few items were marked.

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.

Unreferenced date February 2007 The Cambrian Pottery was founded in 1764 by William Coles in Swansea , Glamorganshire , Wales. In 1790, John Coles, son of the founder, went into partnership with George Haynes , who introduced new business strategies based on the ideas of Josiah Wedgwood . Lewis Weston Dillwyn became a partner in 1802 and sole owner when George Haynes left the pottery in 1810. In 1811 Dillwyn took T.& J. Bevington into partnership, the company becoming known as Dillwyn & Co. Between 1814 and 1817, Dillwyn produced the renowned Swansea Porcelain . Lewis Llewelyn Dillwyn Lewis Weston Dillwyn s son ran the pottery from 1836. He bought out the neighbouring Glamorgan Pottery in 1838. Many of the redundant staff went on to help found the South Wales Pottery at Llanelli, the competition from which, played a part in the ultimate demise of the Cambrian Pottery in 1870. Through its history, the Cambrian employed some notable artists, such as Thomas Baxter painter Thomas Baxter , Thomas Pardoe , William Pollard painter William Pollard , Thomas Rothwell 1740 1807 and William Weston Young . The pottery closed in 1870, when the site was sold to Cory, Yeo & Co.

Messapian pottery was made by the Messapii an ancient people inhabiting the heel of Italy since around 1000 BC who migrated from Illyria . Messapian pottery consisted first primarily, with geometric patterns like circles, squares, diamonds, horizontal dash patterns, swastika and other similar motifs. Late through Greece Greek influence the meander was added. From about the beginning of the 5th century BC again under Greek influence, with imports of Attic pottery, figurative decoration was added. In addition, leaf motifs, new elements such as ivy and other repertoire were included. Up to then only fragments of the pottery was decorated in contrast to the whole surface being decorated after the 5th century BC. In the fourth century BC , the artists came back again to geometric ornamentation, but by then the ceramics were almost completely under Greek influence.
