Frisian family company of potters, founded in 1895 named “Utrechtsche Pottenfabriek/Pottery Factory from Utrecht”. Handcrafted florist's items, shapes/models with engobe or slip-decoration. Bouke I started in the twenties with reducent backing of glazes and the use of lustre glaze. 

In the thirties small series of Oriental inspired ceramics, monochrome (sometimes metallic glaze) glazed pots, vases and plates. After World war II there are 3 different periods: till 1955 gloss or coloured glaze decorative art pottery, a.o dinnerware, flowerpots and vases. From half fifties especially florist's items (pots, plates and vases) with mat glazes. At the end of the sixties made Klaas Mobach hand-turned vase and plate models with colourfull engobes in geometrical motifs. Mid eighties elegant models in gloss glaze. Because of the rise of the household plastics the company was in deep crisis which they conquered with the Regenboog/Rainbow Collection (at the end of 1989, horizontal glaze stripes with different colours and compositions).

The fifties and sixties were Mobach peak years from technical, commercial and aesthetical point of view. Nowaday's specialistic assignments for interiors and architecture. Next to serial ceramics always room for the free expression, like with Jaan (1967 Gulden Vorm Certificate for sphere model with straight inside rim.) and Bouke Mobach chamotte glazes, Tom Bruinsma, hand-thrown objects with ashes and metallic white natural glazes. In 1993 cooperation with Dutch designer Jan des Bouvrie which resulted in unglazed natural vases.
