One
of the often-overlooked great American potteries that made wonderfully
stylish pieces is Cookson Pottery of Roseville, Ohio, in business from
1945 to 1987. Sooner or later, someone will notice and they'll become
popular collectibles!
This
is a wonderfully crisp, architecturally interesting planter from Cookson
in wonderful condition. It has a box shape with 4 sides, with 2 Gothic
arches per side. The bas relief detailing is terrific. It
is a very solid piece and measures 4.5 inches across the opening of
the rim, and 3.75 inches in height. It is a very rich ivory color.
This
planter or vase has no chips, cracks, or hairlines. It is very clean
on the interior as well. Price: $15.00.

COOKSON
POTTERY—Roseville, Ohio. 1945 to 1987. Made
planters, vases, and garden ware. Generally marked with a CP on
the bottom (CP with no periods is usually Cookson; C.P. with periods
is Cook Pottery of Trenton, New Jersey; CP with a flame is Chatham
Potters; C.P.Co. is Chester Pottery of Phoenixville, Pennsylvania).* On
the Internet, you often find CP described as "California Pottery." To
my knowledge, there is no California company that used such a mark. |
