The Boch brothers, William, Anthony, and Francis Victor, established William Boch & Brothers to compete with the slightly older pottery owned by Charles Cartlidge. Boch produced a great many of these Rococo-style pitchers as well as household ceramics such as carpet rods and door pulls and made-to-order ornamental cemetery figures.
