HISTORIQUE: The Onondaga Pottery Company began producing the first American-made vitreous china in the early 1890s and by 1895 the name “Syracuse China” appeared in the back-stamp.
Onondaga Pottery Company quickly built a reputation for having high quality earthenware. Later, their shift to semi-vitreous China made them a nationally renowned pottery company.
The development of Syracuse China made the Onondaga Company what it is today.
