<p>[QUOTE="KikoBlueEyes, post: 3004350, member: 8363"]While I know people who collect Roseville Pottery, I never spotted one I could afford before. So I'm not sure that this is real Roseville pottery at all. And when I have had the pleasure to see someone's collection, I haven't seen any with a shiny glaze. Perhaps, that was just their focus of collection. I know there are Roseville collectors here. Can you tell by my photos, if it appears to be a real piece? It is a simple fan design with a pine cone and swaths of pine needles. The base is mottled brown. The stamp seems to be authentic, but what do I know. As the part under Roseville states, it is 8" tall. It is 4 1/2 inches in diameter at the base and weighs one pound 8.5 ounces.</p><p>If it is real, then the glaze on the bottom seems to be crackled with age or perhaps something else. In addition, to the Roseville, it has a raised 283 - 8" (corrected by Marie); a 7 in blue writing; three blue lines of varying length and what looks like a raised "E" above and to the left of the Roseville. I started imagining other marks, so I will stop here. I paid $25 for it, so if it is a repro or new nothing really lost. Any help will be appreciated.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]289391[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]289392[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]289393[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]289394[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]289402[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]289403[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]289404[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]289405[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]289406[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]289407[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
