Frankoma was founded in 1933 in Norman, Oklahoma by John Frank, a professor of ceramics at the University of Oklahoma from 1927 to 1936. The name Frankoma was derived from “Frank” plus the last three letters of “Oklahoma”. Frank moved the company to Sapulpa in 1938 but had to rebuild the factory later that year after a fire. In earlier beginnings, Frankoma used light-hued local Ada clay, but it was replaced by brick-red local clay in 1953. John operated the pottery with his wife Grace Lee Frank until his death in 1973. The company eventually closed in 2010 and was auctioned on May 18, 2011. Over a thousand pieces of pottery plus showroom fixtures and equipment were sold. The 1,800 original molds and the Frankoma name were not included in the sale, nor was the real estate. August 2012 the factory sold to a non-pottery manufacturer, and they sold the original Frankoma molds and trademark name. As of April 2020, pottery continues to be made but in lower volumes.
Don’t let this magnificent 83-piece vintage dinnerware set by Frankoma pass you by! You simply MUST
