Pair of Cornucopia Vases A lovely small pair of yellow cornucopia vases, probably made by American Pottery (or American Bisque). The pieces are not marked; one has a ground-down (flattened) base, but the other has the exposed foot typical of ABCo/APCo prodcuts. Each piece sits about 3 inches high, 4.5 wide across the top, and 6 inches long. Both pieces are in good condition. One piece has some very small color-spots in the glaze (original to manufacture). The other piece has a drying crack on the inside base (not visible from outside). There are no chips, cracks, hairlines, flakes, and very little sign of any crazing. As a pair, these pieces make a very pretty display! Price: $7.50. Farmer
Pig with Corn A very cute planter from American Pottery Company (APCo), called the "Farmer Pig with Corn." The farmer has a great expression, with red highlights, and the ear of corn is a nice yellow and green. This planter 6 inches high at the top of the hat and just under 6 inches in length. It is in fair condition. There is one large hairline around the left ear (with crazing, see closeup photos at top), but no other chips or flakes. The piece is unmarked, but is shown on page 29 of the book "American Bisque" by Mary Jane Giacomini. Price: $10.00.
