BLUE MOUNTAIN POTTERY (BMP):
Blue Mountain Pottery was a Canadian pottery company located in Collingwood, Ontario. It was founded in 1953 by Dennis Tupy and Jozo Weider and closed in 2004. Originally producing hand-painted ski motifs on purchased blanks, production of the red clay items started in 1953-1954.
Blue Mountain Pottery is best known in the traditional green glaze, a flowing drip glaze that made each piece a distinctive individual work of art.
Blue Mountain Pottery closed the factory and all production as of December 2004. Purchasing BMP items can now only be found on the Secondary Market, Antique and Second Hand stores, flea markets, yard sales, auctions and the like.
