Barbara Willis studied ceramics at UCLA and after graduating in 1940 opened a small studio behind the family home in Los Angeles. By 1942 Barbara Willis was producing her "Terrene Pottery," mostly vases and flower bowls, for the local florist trade.

The remainder of the item would remain earthy clay, usually tooled. Early colors used by Barbara Willis were turquoise, yellow, chartreuse and white.
