At the turn of the Century, most Canadians bought ceramic products from large, established manufacturers based in the United States, particularly Red Wing Stoneware of Red Wing, Minnesota, and Ohio potteries
Three men established Medalta Stoneware in 1916, starting with 12 employees, to prove that Canadian-made ceramics could compete with those from the United States, and that it was "equal in quality to any made in America". The company's products gradually displaced American-made ceramics at western Canadian retailers. The plant became famous, and in 1924, the company was reorganized and renamed to "Medalta Potteries". At that time, the company was producing 75% of Canada's stoneware, including that for the entire western Canada market.
This crock is in very good condition, and would be a great addition for a rustic farm house decor.
