Founded in 1900 and name changed to RRP in 1920
The Ransbottom family began a pottery company to make pottery and stoneware, with Frank Ransbottom as the leader. Under his leadership and by 1916, the pottery grew to be the largest stoneware jar producer in the country. Ransbottom Pottery and Robinson Clay Products merged about 1920. The name was changed to RRP Company and the lines of the new company functional items, art pottery and garden ware.
Because RRP includes the name Roseville, Ohio on its marks, it is sometimes confused by Roseville. Both companies produced fine pottery. RRP endured during the depression and the major wars. It ceased production and closed the pottery in 2005.
As the pottery pieces become rare on the market, they will become even more collectible.
