In 1938 James E. Maloney founded The Williamsburg Pottery Factory in a small roadside shack five miles west of Williamsburg, Virginia. He used traditional techniques and his knowledge of colonial ware to create the finest handmade 18th century style pottery reproductions at affordable prices.

Today the master potters of The Williamsburg Pottery continue his tradition by creating authentic handmade reproductions. Mugs, pitchers, butter churns, preserve jars, chamber pots and hurricane candle jugs are hand crafted daily in the factory he built nearly 70 years ago. Our pottery is hand turned on an old fashion potter's wheel and brushed with the finest 18th century style cobalt blue floral motifs. A crystal clear lead-free glaze gives our ware the strength and durability needed to survive the most raucous battlefield reenactment or simply your dishwasher. Museum quality makes each piece a must have for your pottery collection.

Embossed with The Williamsburg Pottery makers mark each piece is a keepsake of early America; a time capsule back to a more simplistic way of life. Give the gift that will become a family heirloom buy Williamsburg Pottery.
