CantagalliItalian, founded 1878 - unknown
Ulisse Cantagalli (1839-1901) was an Italian pottery producer in Florence, Grand Duchy of Tuscany. He was born into a family of Italian pottery makers, the Cantagalli name having been associated with ceramics since the 15th century. However, it's unclear whether they were makers or merchants. It's been established, though, that they were well known in Impruneta (a town south of Florence) as “furnacers”, land and property owners, and that the Cantagalli factory was producing ceramics in Florence by the beginning of the 18th century.
