Maria Longworth Storer, daughter of wealthy Joseph Longworth, founded Rookwood Pottery. In 1880 after being inspired by the Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia. Storer named it Rookwood, after her father's country estate near the city in Walnut Hills. The first ware came from the kiln, which was a. Thermally insulated chamber, type of oven. That produced temperatures sufficient to complete process, such as hardening, drying, or chemical changes used for millennia to turn objects made from clay to pottery. In 1894, Rookwood introduced three glazes: "Iris" a clear, colorless glaze, "Sea Green" which was clear but green-tinted, and "Aerial Blue" which was clear but blue-tinted.

The latter glaze was produced for just one year, while the two former glazes were used for more than a decade. With increased interest in the American Arts & Crafts Movement.

A matte glaze was needed which could be used over under-glaze decoration (largely floral and scenic). Rookwood introduced a "Vellum" glaze in 1904. Which presented a matte surface through the slightly frosted-appearing decoration beneath could be seen. Be valued in terms of its GLAZE (as described above) as well as its date by examining the mark incised on the bottom of each piece.

In 1886, the company began using a revers RP logo. A flame was added around the logo each year to mark the date the piece was produced and Roman numerals to date its pottery further clarifying the dating process.
