    1st ask I'm trying to verify these pieces.
    I have heard that they are collectible, but you never know. I have to complete sets of these. Along with what looks like a tea set. Can somebody give me the information on where I would go about selling these if they are? 20210107_150322.jpg 20210107_150334.jpg 20210107_150309.jpg 20210107_150258.jpg

    I see RRPCO items at estate auctions all the time, and the newer stuff, like above does OK but don't expect any bidding wars or prices much over $10 each.

    I cannot find an RRPCO mark or entry in Lehner's that look anything like this one. I don't know who made these, but I'm doubtful it was them.

    @Joe2007 Do you have a reference attributing this mark?

    Can't be terribly old with the markings for dishwasher, microwave & oven proof. Guessing no earlier than the 80s.

    True - and Lehner's copyright is 1988, so if newer than that, would explain why it's not there.

    The Bowl shape in the center seems to have two lines - USA above and FP below. Can't find that either. And can't think of a reason why RRPCo would use the letters FP.

    Friendship Pottery of Roseville, Ohio? Found this description online:

    "Friendship Pottery Co. opened in Roseville, Ohio in 1973 and closed in 1996. Their pottery is attractive, durable, functional and collectible. Friendship Pottery bought Ungemach Pottery in 1984."
