In 1889 Rookwood surprised the ceramics community when it was awarded a Gold medal at the Exposition Universelle in Paris. The award changed the way the international ceramics community viewed American ceramic art. In 1900 Rookwood became the name associated with excellence and brilliance in architectural ceramic design. Increased interest in American art and crafts made it a popular choice for architects and interior designers. In 1902 Rookwood added architectural faience wares to its range. It was run by William Watts Taylor and rapidly became a popular choice for those architects and interior designers. As demand increased Rookwood Faience added fire surrounds, mantelpieces, wall plaques, statues, fountains and garden furniture to its range.

When she discussed her desire to create fine pottery with her father, he provided the means and environment that allowed her to pursue her creative passions. And although it may have started as a hobby, the talented Maria quickly managed to establish Rookwood pottery as a quality producer of fine ceramic art. He worked for Rookwood Pottery from 1887 until 1948. She setup the Rookwood company, hired artists like Japanese artist Kitaro Shirayamadani who came to work for the company in 1887, and talented art students and encouraged them to use their creativity to experiment and create unique pottery pieces. Almost every piece designed by these artists sold for hundreds of dollars, and today they are regarded as highly collectible. The Rookwood airbrush, called the mouth atomizer, was developed by Rookwood to apply glazes in an innovative way. The technique helped the company develop its own individual look. The atomizer helped add the beautiful layers of colour Rookwood is known for, and the technique is still used at the Rookwood pottery today. Rookwood Pottery was the first pottery manufacturer headed by a woman. More well known pottery manufacturers and recognised artists doubted this female led company would have what it takes to succeed, but much to their surprise Rookwood turned out to be one of the best. By combining extraordinary attention to detail and innovative design Maria Longworth Nicholas made Rookwood the standard for ceramic pottery manufacturers to aim for.

Reinvigorating the brand and returning it to its tradition of excellence and top quality innovative design Sample Rookwood Pottery Marks Rookwood marked their pottery from the outset and the rookwood marks have remained pretty consistent. Earlier marks, like the sample at top left below, show the typical reversed R with the P logo and a small selection of four flame marks above. This dates the mark to circa 1890. Rookwood Pottery from c1900 has fourteen flames surrounding the Rookwood trademark. The reversed R and P logo was used on almost every piece of Rookwood pottery produced between 1886 and the end of production in 1967. Between 1886 and 1900 one additional flame was added to the logo for each year. In 1901, Rookwood stopped adding flames to the logo and started adding roman numerals below the fourteen flame mark. This continued until the end of production in 1967. Rookwood also added a shape number and Rookwood pottery can be found with shape numbers ranging from 1 to 7301. A for the largest shape size and F for the smallest. Rookwood size letters, if present were impressed right after the shape number. Glaze notations are also used on some Rookwood pieces, were V is for vellum glazes, W for iris glazes and SG for sea green, etc. Artist decorated Rookwood pottery will have similar markings with the addition of an artists initials or cypher. The image above left shows Rookwood marks for c1893, with shape number 139 in size A, decorated in iris glaze and by Matt Daly.
