About the Item
Two Figural Milk-Glass Tureens
Atterbury & Company (Atterbury Glass Company)
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (1860-1902)
This glass manufacturing firm began as Hale, Atterbury & Company in 1860. (Some sources have given 1859, but the 1860 year date is according to information found in Pittsburgh’s Progress, Industries and Resources by George H. Thurston, published in 1886). The firm was reorganized as Atterbury, Reddick & Company circa 1861, J.S. & T. B. Atterbury (1863) and by 1865 it was known as Atterbury & Company, with a slight name change to “Atterbury Glass Company” in 1896.
The last mention of Atterbury appears in a 1902 city directory, so it would be assumed they shut down production sometime in the 1901-1902 time frame. Information is very sketchy on the later years of this company. (This timeline is gleaned from information published in Glasshouses & Glass Manufacturers of the Pittsburgh Region 1795-1910 by author and researcher Jay W. Hawkins, 2009).
This glasshouse was also known as the “White House Factory”, with conflicting reports as to why it had garnered that name, either due to the fact that the factory building was painted white, or because they produced large quantities of white milk glass (“opal”) ware. It is likely that both reasons were correct.
