Teco pottery was introduced in 1902. By 1911 the line included more than 500 designs. Teco is thought to have been produced at least until the mid-1920s.

Many pieces were made with matte green glaze, some with a metallic black overglaze, but other colors such as brown, yellow, blue, pink and maroon were also made. These items are considered to be part of the arts and crafts movement and are highly regarded by art pottery enthusiasts. Most collectors are attracted to Teco for the unique and creative shapes of the pieces, especially those with geometric features rather than the color of the glaze, according to JustArtPottery.com.
