Grueby Faience Company

The company initially focused on simple art pottery vases designed by George Prentiss Kendrick.

Graves and Kendrick were eventually replaced by the architect Addison LeBoutillier and Henry Belknap, who had worked with Louis Comfort Tiffany.

[7] Grueby emerged from bankruptcy and began limited production runs that included statues, pottery, and tiles until 1911.

Grueby Faience Company, which still remains better known for its art pottery, also produced glazed architectural tiles, which were impressed in molds.
