MILLER STUDIO IN 1954

Miller Studio began as a small corner gift shop in New Philadelphia, Ohio in 1934 and was founded by Harry Miller and his wife Clela.

Mr. & Mrs. Miller had the idea that there might be a market in their shop for quality, hand painted wall plaques and began to produce these items in reltalively small production runs...

Using a jobber sales force to distribute the pieces, by 1952 Miller Studio had become the leading manufacturer of decorative wall decor for the house wares trade and currently enjoy world-wide distribution of our line of over 100 designs.
