I agree with toomanytocount. Certainly not fake. The ranges of the auction house were a bit optimistic. The only issues are that Japanese...
At least we're in agreement that it's not Nippon. I'd love to see the Sebring vase! I considered producers like American Belleek, Pickard and...
I don't think it's a fake just not much older than the 1930's or so. That cobalt rim decoration was quite popular at that time. Don
I don't know, cluttered, I can't think of an American company producing this type of ware. I'm leaning more towards an English producer trying to...
There is a collecting category in pottery called "sewer tile". It usually has a brick red color. I'm wondering if that might be the case here....
Thank you, Ghopper1924. They were on a table in the back room and I just couldn't resist them! Don
Many of the McCoy folks are kind and helpful. Just don't get in their way if a really rare piece comes up for bid! Don
I'm back! I posted the following on the McCoy Pottery Facebook page: "A person on one of the other boards I hang out at (antiquers.com) has a...
Not on Facebook!!! Heavens!!! No problem, I'll ask for you. Don
You might want to give the McCoy Pottery Facebook page a shot. Those folks know their stuff. If Chiquita doesn't know nobody knows. Don

Reminds me a bit of Royal Bayreuth but the quality isn't quite there. It could be transfer with hand painted background or accents. As fully...
Hello Board Buddies - I purchased these candlesticks at auction yesterday and can't seem to find anything about them. They measure about 7 3/4"...
Thank you, thank you, thank you! These bowls have been driving me nuts. Don
Oh, and there's nothing dim about a learning experience. I'm still learning on this board every day. I'm just happy I have such folks to do it...
I think it might be pottery. Try searching Japanese chintz. Don
I think you are right and it is recent. I'm basing that mainly on the design and (I'm afraid) the sloppy execution. Don
Blenko did make candle holders in this shape but they don't match the proportions on yours. Just thought you'd like to know your instincts aren't...
Personally, I like the way it looks and I don't think I'd be too quick to take off the paint. Most circa 1900 milk glass was cold painted so it's...
Hi and welcome Josie - It looks crystal to me. If nothing else the foot gives it away. I would guess a lead crystal blank with some cutting....
