Puerto Rican Pottery Corp. was one of two potteries that established mid-century production of ceramics in Puerto Rico. The company operated from 1948–1966 in Santurce. It was a small government run and federally funded pottery that created hand-built and decorated works produced by young artisans. The workroom was initially headed by Edwin & Mary Scheier, and later by noted potter Hal Lasky.
