A clever collaboration between potter, Herman C. Cole, and artist and entrepreneur, Anna M. Graham, led to the creation of Hillside Pottery in 1927. Located along the banks of the Neuse River near Smithfield, in Johnston County, North Carolina, the operation catered to passing motorists on Highway 22 between Northern homes and Florida vacations and to New York and other out-of-state merchants.

In addition, Cole called upon some of North Carolina's most talented turners to keep up with customer demand. By 1931, Hillside's name was changed to Smithfield Art Pottery, making it clear that this was not a jug factory.
