The ancient Neapolitan factory "Mollica" was founded by Giovanni Mollica, son of Pasquale, a ceramist at the "Real Fabbrica Ferdinandea" and at "Giustiniani", in 1842.
At the end of the nineteenth century, the manufacturing industry became one of the most important in southern Italy.
In the early years of the twentieth century, and until the end of the thirties, the manufacture was the first to use "ribbon" workmanship and all-round polychrome flower decorations with a baroque flavour.
In the 1940s, the production of full-round figures in porcelain and polychrome terracotta was resumed.
The brand of the manufacturer, active until 1978, consists of a crowned blue letter "N", used by many manufacturers in Campania and beyond, together with the writing "Mollica". A trademark consisting of the crowned letter "M" is also known.
