With the exception of the decorative plates, very few of the Catalina pieces
were signed or marked by individual artists. Catalina pottery is most known for
its bright glazes, but those colors changed with the fashion, and softer pastel
glazes became en vogue. In 1937
Gladding McBean, a competing pottery company, bought the name but closed the
plant, forever ending the pottery's production on the island..
