George Zoltan Lefton was a Hungarian immigrant who arrived in Chicago in 1939. Although his background was in marketing and designing specialty clothing, he had a passion for collecting fine porcelain. By 1941 Lefton was focused solely on porcelain and had opened Lefton China. The company became well known for manufacturing a variety of delicate china items such as teapots, creamers, sugar containers, teacups, ashtrays, figurines, vases and much more. In 1945 Lefton traveled to Japan and sealed an important agreement which allowed him to produce the first Lefton China product, which was originally marked as “Made in Occupied Japan.” Over the years the Lefton Company produced numerous products that are highly sought after by collectors including: cookie jars, holiday items, figurines, teapots, jam jars, planters, pitchers, shakers, Red Hat pieces, wall pockets, head vases and lighthouses. At one point in time, over 10,000 retail shops carried Lefton products nationwide. George Zoltan Lefton died in 1996 in Florida. The company was sold in 2001.
