Henry Mercer(1856-1930) was an American archeologist and historian, particularly interested in the local craft of pottery making. He tried to revive the craft in the area, but wasn't too successful, however this interest is what eventually morphed into his passion for making decorative tiles. He spent a lot of time researching old designs and glazes from all over the world, and trying to perfect his own formulas.
