Niloak is a line of pottery which was produced in Benton,Arkansas by Eagle Pottery Company. Eagle was found in 1890s by Charles DeanHyten and his brothers. By 1904 Eagle was the largest pottery-ware business inthe Benton area. Then in 1909 Arthur Dovey joined Hyten, by then the soleowner, to develop an operation to produce art pottery. Thus, began Niloak. Thename Niloak is the spelling of kaolin reversed. Kaolin is the main ingredientof porcelain. Niloak was and is best known for their Swirl pottery resemblingmarbled paper. Then in 1932 Niloak transitioned from hand thrown products toslip-cast and mold-pressed production which was spearheaded by Stoin M. Stoin.These 62 Hywood shapes were simply marked on the bottom Niloak. Beginning in1939 new shapes were added that provided a lip and the bottoms of pieces wereable to be glazed. Because of the war effort many materials were regulatedwhich were used in the Niloak glazes and clay, so the recipes werereformulated. After the war regular production resumed and new bright glazeswere used. By the end of 1947 Niloak was no more.
