Stangl Art Pottery
Stangl joined Fulper in 1919, where his continued success led to his becoming vice-president in 1924, when he introduced the first open stock solid-color dinnerware. It was in 1929 that Stangl purchased Fulper and changed the company's name to Stangl Pottery. In 1935, the smaller facility was turned into a retail showroom, in effect becoming the first "factory outlet". In the earlier years, the Fulper art pottery lines were widely admired because of their Arts and Crafts designs. (Story continues below products)

However, as interest in the style declined, the company directed its designs toward simpler forms and more muted glazes, with oriental motifs. In the 1930s and 1940s, Stangl Pottery introduced a line of bird figurines which were enormously popular and are still very much coveted by collectors. These bird designs were very accurately presented, and were hand-painted and signed by their artists. A porcelain line based on Audubon studies was briefly produced during World War II, but was discontinued after a few years. Stangl took care to mark all of its pieces and proudly boasted of this in its advertising. A number of marks were used over the years. As many as three identifying marks might appear on a bird figurine, for example: the company's mark, the carver's initials, and the painter's.
