The Homer Laughlin China Co. Since 1871


Durable and beautiful pottery made in the U.S.A. for more than 130 years!

The Homer Laughlin China Co. is the largest pottery maker in America. Though it was originally founded in 1871 in Ohio, it currently employs more than 1,100 U.S. workers in its 37-acre facility in Newell, WV.

While the company has struggled throughout the years to compete with imported dinnerware that was made by cheaper labor overseas, they have managed to make the necessary changes to keep their company and jobs in the U.S. (Why can't more American companies make that effort?)

In 2011, HLC will celebrate the 75th anniversary of its famous and colorful Fiesta Dinnerware.

You can buy HLC products at Macy's, Dillard's, Kohl's, on Amazon and direct from the company at http://www.fiestafactorydirect.com.
