About the artists. Van Briggle Pottery, located in Colorado Springs, Colorado, was established in 1899, and is one of the oldest active art potteries in the United States. Founded by Artus Van Briggle, Van Briggle Pottery has been considered one of the great American art potteries for over a century. He came to Colorado Springs after years of training at distinguished potteries and art academies in the United States and in Europe. He and his wife Anne, also an accomplished artist, began a tradition of making fine pottery which quickly swept the western art world. Van Briggle is renouned for his talents in clay and glaze. Artus and Annes Art Nouveau designs and satin mat glazes received the highest awards of the day. Numerous awards were conferred upon Van Briggle works by venues such as Paris Salon, the Saint Louis Exhibition, the Lewis and Clark Centennial, and the Arts & Crafts Exhibition in Boston. Examples of Van Briggle pottery can be seen in permanent collections of the Metropolitan Museum in New York, the Smithsonian Institution in Washington D.C., The British Museum in London, and at the Louvre in Paris. The Artistic tradition begun by Artus and Anne Van Briggle over 100 years ago continues today. Many of their designs and glaze effects created at the turn of the 20th century are still being produced by gifted artisans who perpetuate and reinterpret the classic Van Briggle style.
