Rookwood Pottery Company was an influential American art pottery manufacturer founded in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1880 by Maria Longworth Nichols Storer. Renowned for its exceptional craftsmanship and innovative glazes, Rookwood became one of the leading producers of Art Pottery during the Arts and Crafts movement, blending artistic design with high-quality ceramic production. The company employed many notable decorators and ceramic artists, producing pieces that ranged from delicate floral vases to richly glazed architectural tiles. Rookwood pottery is especially prized today for its matte and iridescent glazes, hand-painted decoration, and distinctive marks that help date individual works. Its ceramics remain highly collectible and are represented in major museums and decorative arts collections throughout the United States.
