Hanova began 1962 is a collaboration between Erwin Prust and Bob Hill in Hollywood, California. Prust and Hill experimented using a small furnace to improve the technique of enamel coating on steel rather than the typical base metal of copper. Prust and Hill moved the production to Pasadena, California. Hill designed pieces and Prust, with his background in porcelain enamel processes, perfected the techniques and managed production. During this time, Prust honed and finally perfected the enamel lava and crazing texturing technique on steel that signifies their distinctive pieces.
