About Rookwood Pottery: Maria Longworth Storer launched Rookwood in 1880 with a single kiln and an ambition to put American art pottery on the map. As the first woman founder of a manufacturing company in the United States, she quickly made good on her promise – winning a gold medal at the Paris Exposition within ten years, and positioning Rookwood as a key player in the art pottery movement.
Maria championed the individuality of her artists, and saw in every cup, vase and vessel the chance to bring their art into people’s daily lives. Much has changed over time, but her vision of pottery as a path to beauty in the home continues to shape everything we do today.
