Stangl Pottery has been known far and wide forinnovative artware, bright, colorful bird figurines and hand-painted dinnerwarein floral and fruit patterns!
Begun by Samuel Hill in 1814 in Flemington, New Jersey, and known as Hill Pottery. By 1900, the company, now Fulper Pottery Co., was under the direction of William H. Fulper II, grandson of Abram Fulper. William H. Fulper II was responsible for the development and introduction of Fulper Pottery Co.'s now renowned Vasekraft art pottery in 1909. In 1910, he hired ceramic engineer Martin Stangl to develop new Fulper Pottery shapes and glazes. By 1924, Martin Stangl was vice president of the company, and was responsible for the introduction of America's first open stock solid-color dinnerware. By the 1940s, hand-painted dinnerware had become popular, augmented in 1942 with the introduction of Stangl's best-known product, hand-carved, hand-painted dinnerware. Stangl's dinnerware and artware was sold through over 3000 department, gift and jewelry stores across America. By November 1978, Stangl Pottery ceased manufacturing and closed forever, signaling the end of a truly unique American folk-art product. A rare find! This is a STANGL hat display. It is ceramic attached to a wooden base. The piece measures 15 inches tall from the base to the top of the head. The base measures 5.5 X 5.5 inches. This is a handsome gentleman with brown eyes and a handlebar moustache...he is wearing a white shirt with a blue bowtie. This piece is in excellent condition with no chips or cracks. Truly a wonderful piece of American Pottery History...
