Texas pottery is also a popular item. In the 1860s, the Wilson brothers, who were black men who lived near Seguin, Texas produced Texas pottery pieces. This Texas pottery is often credited as one of the first African-American-owned businesses in Texas, several men with the surname Wilson made and sold pottery in Capote Hills, approximately 10 miles east of Seguin from 1857 to 1903. During this time, the three potteries involved the African-American Wilsons: first Guadalupe Pottery, second H. Wilson & Co., and third Durham-Chandler-Wilson.
