Crocks make excellent gifts for any occasion and continue to become rare and are found being passed on as family heirlooms from generation to generation.

Crocks make a wonderful addition to your home decor and can make great end tables when outfitted with a rustic wooden or cut-glass top. They can be used as a stand-alone or consider floral arrangements as well as dried arrangements.

The Buckeye Pottery was started by Joseph Pech and his sons. Joseph Pech had learned the pottery craft in Austria, the home of his birth. After moving to the U.S. and settling in Ohio, he continued to work at that craft. It is no surprise that his sons also grew up working in pottery.

In 1882, Joseph Pech and his son, Frank, and their family had joined Washington, Joseph’s oldest son, in Macomb and opened the Buckeye Pottery, naming it in honor of the state from which they had relocated.

The Pech family originally invested $20,000 in the Buckeye Pottery, employed about 20 people and in 1882 put out about 4,000 gallons a week. By the early 1900s, their production had increased to 50,000 gallons a week and the product line had increased. These pieces could easily be identified by the stencil on their wares. As late as the turn of the 19th century, “J PECH & SONS / MACOMB / ILL,” along with a wreath, were put on the produced pieces.

In the early 1900s, the more familiar “BLUE RIBBON BRAND / BUCKEYE POTTERY” depicted by a blue ribbon over the company’s name, was found on their crocks and jugs.
