Company History: William Shaw George (March 21, 1865 – April 12, 1925) bought a controlling interest in the East Palestine Pottery Company located in Sebring, Ohio in 1904. He added a new plant and renamed the company the Continental China Company. In 1909, he changed the name to the W. S. George Pottery Company. The company produced semi-porcelain dinnerware, hotel ware, and toilet ware. In 1901, the company built its Plant #2 in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania. Plant #3 in Kittanning, Pennsylvania followed in 1914. A 1921 fire destroyed Plant #1 in East Palestine, Ohio. The plant was rebuilt in 1924 and known as Plant #4. After W. S. George died in 1925, his family continued to manage the business. The Derwood and Radisson dinnerware shape lines were introduced in 1910 and continued in production through the 1940s. Lido was introduced in the 1930s. Bolero was produced in the 1940s and 1950s. When W. S. George Pottery Company filed for bankruptcy in 1955, the Royal China Company bought Plant #4. The remaining W. S. George Pottery Company holdings were liquated between 1959 and 1960. The pricing from the drop down menu is per piece; I offer multiple piece discounts of up to 20% off.
