The Denver Terra Cotta Works were burned early this morning. It is thought to have been incendiary. Loss $28,000; insurance $11,000.

Los Angeles Daily Herald, (Los Angeles, California) July 28, 1883
_______________________________________________________________________________________

Pottery clay.—Pottery clay is found quite abundantly in many parts of the Rocky Mountain region, occasionally, as at some points along the line of the Union Pacific railroad in Wyoming, and at Golden and Morrison in Jefferson county, Colorado, in a state of great purity and excellence. Two establishments in Colorado, the Cambria Brick and Tile Works at Golden, and the Terra Cotta Works at Denver, owned by Mr. Thomas Moulton, are engaged in the manufacture of the best quality of drain tiles, and pavement tiles, making also large quantities of sewer piping of unsurpassed durability. Both works also manufacture flowerpots, hanging-baskets, jars, jugs, and many other forms of earthenware. These wares are sold at prices said to be as low as those of the eastern works, and are of excellent quality. The entire local market and the demand in the adjoining towns is supplied by the works at Golden and Denver.

The Denver Terra Cotta Works used during 1882 one carload of pottery clay per week, and 550 tons during the year.

Williams, Albert Jr.; Mineral Resources of the United States (Washington, Government Printing Office, 1883)

POTTERIES.

The excellence of the local clays and the growing importance of the home market has led to the establishment of two potteries, making stone ware, etc. They are the Denver Steam Pottery Co., Denver, employing nine men, with two kilns and a capacity of 16,000 gallons per week; and the Queen City Pottery Co., Denver, employing twelve men, with two kilns and a capacity of 20,000 gallons per week. A third plant, the Colorado Pottery Co., makes flower pots only.

Considering that in Denver and the county of which this city is the railroad and distributing centre, there is now sold every year $4,500,000 worth of general pottery goods, such as are made in Staffordshire, Eng, and $200,000 worth of sanitary earthenware, now obtained mostly from Trenton, New Jersey, it can only be a question of a short time when new potteries in Colorado will utilize the local kaolinic and other high class clays for the supply of the entire Western market with Queensware, China, etc. THOMAS TONGE.
