Nelson McCoy
Roseville Floraline
"Pedestal Bowl"
Gloss Green,
Model 491

This is a wonderful piece of McCoy's Floraline—the very elegant green Nelson McCoy ribbed planter model 491, from the "Roseville Floraline" collection of the 1960s and 1970s. It measures about 5.5 inches in height and almost 5 inches across the rim.

This terrific piece of pottery has a wonderful thick green glaze. There is one spot on the rim (photo at right) where the green glaze was skipped (not a chip). Otherwise, it is in excellent condition. There are no chips, cracks, flakes, hairlines, or crazing.

The incised mark reads "491 / USA". This specific planter is shown on page 259 of "McCoy Pottery," Volume III, by Nissen, Hanson, and Hanson. Price: $15.
