About
Why this artist matters now
Coors Porcelain Company, established in Golden, Colorado in 1910, manufactured industrial and laboratory porcelain vessels and technical ceramics. The company's output ranged from chemical laboratory equipment to decorative domestic ware, utilizing high-fire techniques and glazing processes refined through the early twentieth century. Postwar production expanded into both commercial ceramics and consumer goods, establishing Coors as a significant American manufacturer of utilitarian and art pottery.
