Weller Pottery was founded in 1872 by Samuel A. Weller in Fultonham, Ohio, initially producing simple utilitarian items such as stoneware jars and crocks.

As the company grew, it moved to Zanesville, Ohio, in the 1880s and expanded into decorative art pottery, capitalizing on the popularity of the Arts and Crafts movement. Weller became known for its wide range of pottery lines, with famous patterns each showcasing the company's artistic evolution. By employing talented designers, Weller Pottery gained recognition for its innovative glazes and artistic designs. Weller Pottery ceased operations in 1948, primarily due to competition from cheaper, mass-produced ceramics and changes in consumer demand. However, its pottery remains highly collectible today because of the variety, beauty, and craftsmanship of its designs.

Collectors are drawn to Weller's diverse range of styles from art nouveau to arts and crafts including hand-decorated floral motifs to rich matte glazes. Certain lines are especially coveted for their artistic quality and rarity.
