Did You Know?

  • Weller Pottery was founded by Samuel Weller in 1872 in Fultonham, Ohio. Initially, the company produced utilitarian stoneware items such as crocks and jugs before transitioning to art pottery in the late 19th century.
  • Weller Pottery was known for its innovative glazing techniques. One of its most famous lines, the "Hudson" line, featured a unique drip glaze that resembled flowing water, showcasing the company's mastery of glazing effects.
  • During World War II, like many other pottery companies, Weller Pottery shifted its focus to producing more practical items such as kitchenware and sanitary ware due to material shortages and changes in consumer demand.
  • Weller Pottery faced financial challenges in the mid-20th century and eventually closed its doors in 1948. Despite its closure, Weller Pottery remains highly collectible today, cherished for its artistic designs and contributions to American art pottery history.
