Anfora is the largest Mexican manufacturer of vitrified ceramics. It is based in the silver mining city of Pachuca, in the state of Hidalgo, in Mexico. Anfora was founded in 1920 as a porcelain manufacturer for home and institutional use. After the Mexican Revolution, Anfora came to dominate the Mexican market for this type of product. In the 1940s Anfora started to manufacture sanitaryware for the building markets. The company is represented exclusively for the US market by Steelite International and competes against local factories like Homer Laughlin and Buffalo China. The main pattern is the Blue and White Puebla, sold as a collector's item.
