What is Burley Winter Pottery?
Burley Winter produced art ceramics in Crooksville, Ohio in the 1930's.
Burley Winter Pottery began making utilitarian ceramics in 1872. It was not until 1932 that the company began selling their art line known as "Blended Art". This line ended by 1943 as the focus of the company changed to industrial ceramics for the war effort. In 1988 the company finally liquidated. It was later bought by the Swingle family, and was rebranded as 'The New Burley Winter Pottery'. As a major vintage manufacturer of art pottery in Ohio, Burley Winter Pottery is a favorite with decorators. The combination of unique glazes and low cost makes adding accents on a budget much easier, especially when the style calls for a more ancient motif.
