In the final years, the showroom was only open on certain days of the week. On those days, customers could select from the stoneware that was made during the week. There was a limit of one piece per customer. Visitors could also meet the artist, Charles Hill, and potter, Nando Ricci. Mr. Hill would be seated in the showroom, brushing on the cobalt blue patterns, while Mr. Ricci would provide the finished product. They took great pride in their work and loved to see their customers' reactions.
