ADCO
Adco was a Dutch pottery factory: the N.V Groninger Steenfabrieken "ADCO" Aardewerk, Ruischerbrug. The factory produced from around 1920 to 1977.

Many types of utensils were produced, but later mainly vases, flowerpots and flower-dish bowls, for which grey and red-baking clay was used. Sometimes vases on the outside were smooth, sometimes also almost the entire outside had horizontal ridges. A model was usually made in multiple formats, ranging from small to large. All models were always provided with a pressed model number. The glazes were often silky and in modest, non-intrusive colours.

Adco was bought by De Porceleyne Fles in 1970 and liquidated in 1977.
