Notes |
According to Sanford's Guide to the Robinson-Ransbottom Pottery Company: "In the late 1920s, Robinson-Ransbottom produced their best lines of art ware. The company hired Francesco (Frank) DeDonatis and Sam Celli to hand decorate pottery... Since Frank and Sam had come directly from Castelli, Italy in the Province of Teramo, the pieces they decorated were decidedly Italian...They went on to work for the Weller Pottery Company between 1930 and 1932 where they were asked to create a new line for the pottery." |
