INTRODUCTION
Gladding, McBean & Co.
INTRODUCTION
artisan made
This catalog shows the wide range of pottery pieces designed & handmade in our ceramic studios and fired in our kilns.
These pieces are not only for the garden, but also for general use of decoration indoors and out. Gladding, McBean & Co.
has been producing this pottery for 130 years. Its manufacture began in the earliest years of the company’s existence at a time
when no other terra cotta plant on the Pacific Coast was attempting anything of the sort. Gladding, McBean & Co. therefore,
has pioneered in pottery-making. The company feels that it has carried the art to an impressive height of excellence.
In every detail but color the following photographs speak for themselves. Each piece is glazed in one of our
beautiful proprietary glazes. A complete set of glaze samples can be seen at our retail showrooms.
This pottery is on display at, and may be ordered from, any of the retail showrooms listed on our website at
www.gladdingmcbean.com. In photographing the pieces, and in reproducing the photographs for this catalog, the strictist care
was taken to make the pictures as faithful as possible to the objects themselves. We are confident that in every instance the
pottery will be found lovelier than its picture. The poet might well have had this pottery in mind when he wrote:
“A thing of beauty is a joy forever.”
