•Marwal Ind Inc was founded in Brooklyn, NY, around the mid-1960s, by Romanian immigrant Marcel Walters.
Walters used the first syllables of his first and last names, to name his company. His two-years work as a salesman for a Brooklyn company that made figurines and statues inspired him to start his own similar company. Marwal produced chalkware figurines and statues that were made with Hydrastone, which was a mixture of plaster of Paris and gypsum. Marwal's staff searched antique and other shops around the world, to find objects of historical significance that could be molded, cast, and painted.
When an object was found, a mold maker created a rubber mold, from which casting was done. In Brooklyn, Marwal products consisted of over 200 figurines and statues.
