Featured Manufacturer of Pottery Jardiniere

Can anyone identify the manufacturer of this jardiniere? Thank you in advance for your help. I have not found any maker's mark on the piece.

 

I am not well informed enough for exact identifications but would not be surprised if this were Brush, Weller, or one of the big Ohio potteries of the early 20th century.

 

I'm no help either but it is lovely!

Linda

 

I agree.

 

this one notes Roseville

Antique Roseville Pottery Jardiniere Oak Acorn 207-8 | #84225054 (worthpoint.com)

also matte green noted as Ohio
ANTIQUE MATTE GREEN OHIO ART POTTERY JARDINIERE VASE HANDLES OAK LEAVES ACORN | #2041479115 (worthpoint.com)

 

That looks exactly like my jardiniere, but there is a stamped mark on the bottom of my jardiniere that appears to have the word, "England" in the mark. Roseville is made in Zanesville, OH. I collect Roseville, and while I don't know all of the early lines, this is not like any Roseville piece that I've seen. The glaze is similar to pieces I've seen of Robinson Ransbottom (which is in Roseville, OH). However, the stamped mark says "England."

It's a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma. Too bad the stamped mark isn't complete, or I think I could figure it out.

 

Please include close up photos of any marks on the bottom.

 

Somehow the photo of the mark got dropped. Here is that photo. The mark is stamped into the mold. It isn't printed. The last letters are clearly "LAND". The only thing I can think of is that word is "ENGLAND". The mark appears to be an eagle. It could be a two-headed eagle, which infers Russia or Prussia to me. It is one of those things ... I would just like to know.

 

Wrong mark photo. Sorry. There is no mark on the piece. Man, I really confused this thread. I apologize.

 

Don't know who made it, sorry, but found a few others. It's the matte one that makes me wonder if it might hold the key.

This one in matte green numbered 207-9, they're guessing Brush McCoy maybe

This is another, like the one was linked in a post above, they are thinking Roseville, calling it 207 but not mentioning if this one is marked

And another, this marked 207-7, called blended glaze which is how I usually think of these.

This is amazing research. Your post caused me to look at the bottom of my jardiniere. It is marked 207-9. I had not seen that before. The link for the 207-7 states, "7 ¼ inches tall and 10 ¼ inches handle to handle." My jardiniere is 8 1/2 inches tall and 13 inches handle to handle. Your post gave me more information to go on.

The 207-9 mark is interesting because it is similar to how Roseville Pottery marked their production pieces. I will look at my Roseville books again. I still don't think it is Roseville, but now I am not so sure. I am pretty sure it is from an Ohio pottery company.

It is still a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, but you and the others have pulled it out of the enigma.

 

Here's another thinking it could possibly be Brush McCoy.

I will investigate Brush-McCoy also. I am not familiar with them. The pedestal and jardiniere in the liveauctioneers link is the same, same molding, same handles. A quick search found this pdf about Brush-McCoy: http://mccoypotterycollectorssociety.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/brush-mccoy-lines.pdf

which is by the McCoy Potteries Collectors' Society. The pdf has photos of Brush-McCoy, but none are of this style. After work, I am going to review my Roseville books because that numbering system is like what Roseville used. I will look into Brush-McCoy too. Thank you for taking time to post and send the information. I am bound and determined to figure this out.

 

In some respects it reminds me of the vase the pros IDed for me as Brush amaryllis:

Ceramic Vase - What Did I Buy?

In my limited familiarity with Brush-McCoy, there is at least a shape number impressed into the bottom of each piece.

 

Thank you all for contributing your thoughts. So, obviously, there are many jardinieres out there like this. Who made it is still in question. I have confirmed that Brush McCoy, Roseville, and Robinson Ransbottom all made blended glazed products like this. However, I have not found one credible source, like a collector's club or book, with this pattern tied to a particular manufacturer.

In this thread, there is WorthPoint attributing it to Roseville. There is LiveAuctioneers attributing it to Brush McCoy. I will say that the numbering system reminds me of Roseville.

Whoever the manufacturer is, it is likely American and probably an Ohio company. I agree that the proper description is "blended glaze." That phrase is used on the McCoy Pottery Collectors' website and in my Roseville Pottery books. The discussion has been very, very helpful. I know much more than when I asked the question. Thank you.

 

There is an appraiser and auctioneer named David Rago.

who usually is very good at answering questions about pottery. You will need to add a good clear picture of the bottom and any numbers. Then email pictures to him.

 

I have heard of David Rago. Isn't he one of the people on Antiques Roadshow? I am hesitant to bother someone of his stature about something this minor. If I can build up the courage, I will do that.

 

I tried contacting Rago's once, never got a reply.

It couldn't hurt to try, he probably has staff to handle email inquiries.

 

Looks artisan/studio edit: lol nm! I should have read all first
