Stangl Pottery, formed by the consolidation of Hill and Fulper Potteries of Flemington, New Jersey, was the life-long passion and creation of Martin Stangl and from 1924 until 1978 he developed and produced a great assortment of earthenware, lamps, artware, figurines, dinnerware and special-order products.
