Artifact Overview

Maria Longworth Nichols (1849-1932) founded Rookwood Pottery--the pioneering art pottery company in America--in Cincinnati in 1880. She hired talented young women (who would not have had opportunities elsewhere) as well as men to create innovative ceramic wares. Trendsetting imagery and glazes made Rookwood famous and helped establish the look of art pottery.
