Sascha Brastoff (1917-1993) was a performer, designer, and the founder of a successful production ceramics factory and line that operated in Los Angeles, California, from c.1946 – 1962. 
 
As a child in Cleveland, Brastoff had taken an interest in ceramics at a young age, painting his family’s own dinner plates. In New York City while creating window displays, Brastoff had belonged to a ceramic studio in Greenwich Village called the Clay Club.
 
Forming his own company with the support of his life partner Howard Shoup and the backing of Winthrope B. Rockefeller was a natural decision to make. As the company grew, a massive factory and showroom designed by A. Quincy Jones and Frederick Emmons was built on West Olympic Boulevard in West Los Angeles in 1953. At its height, Brastoff had around 100 ceramicists and decorators working for him.
