 Fulper
Pottery was incorporated in 1899 although
the company was well established prior to this
date. The first art pottery line introduced by
Fulper was Vasecraft in 1909. In 1910, Martin
Stangl became Fulper's ceramics engineer. Stangl
was responsible for the development of many of
the art pottery forms and glazes for Fulper.
Most of Fulper's early work, up to and including
the late teens, represents the superior quality
glazes for which the company is famous. Fulper
used approximately 100 glazes during its art pottery
production days. Fulper's highest quality glazes
make a striking statement even when on the most
common forms.
In 1929 Stangl acquired
Fulper Pottery. Art pottery continued to be
produced in much smaller quantity and lower quality
until about 1935. In 1935 Stangl shifted to production
of dinner ware.
