Gouda comes from the same town in Holland from which the eponymous
cheese hails. Production of pottery began in the late 1800s. While the
pictured items are the more familiar style of Gouda pottery, the potteries
in the region also produced very different types of pottery. 6.5in Gouda
vase c.1925-1935, $125.00. 3.5in Gouda mini shoe c.1895-1900, $99.50. Pair
of candlesticks, $295.00 (only one pictured). |

Rockingham actually refers to a style of 'tortoiseshell' high glaze
that was a popular effect on stoneware in the beginning of the 19th century
in America. The fact that Rockingham is quite old compared to many collectable
areas contributes to the scarcity and value. Pair, 9in Rockingham glaze
dogs, $1350.00. |

Roseville has become one of the most well-recognized (and loved)
areas of collecting. Many patterns exist, and lots of people remember Grandma
having a few pieces. This floor vase in the Fuschia pattern is of a unusual
size and in a hard-to-find pattern. This piece is $2100.00. |

Weller's mottled-glaze Coppertone pottery is one of the most sought
after lines by collectors. It's characterized by the blotches of grass
green glaze over copper underglaze. The frogs are perhaps the most interesting
part of the line. 15.5in Weller Coppertone frog motif bowl, with lilypad
accent, $1250.00. Matching 5in flower frog priced separately at $250.00. |

Most of the Majolica fish pitchers, from the Victorian era, are
unmarked and the manufacturer remains unknown. However, that does nothing
to dampen their collectability. The squirrel is a somewhat unusual motif.
11in 'sleepy eye' (it has one unpainted eye) fish pitcher- it gurgles when
you pour from it! $339.00. 8in squirrel pitcher w/ repaired lip, $950.00. |

Of the very hot genre of North Dakota pottery, Rosemeade, c.1940-61,
is perhaps the most well known name. While our dealer calls these tulip
shaped items 'spoon rests', the company often marketed the exact same item
as spoon rests, ashtrays, and pin trays to increase marketability. Set
of three 5.5in Rosemeade tulip shaped spoon rests, in blue, red, and yellow,
for $85.00 each. |

Abingdon was just one of the American pottery companies that produced
some highly collectable cookie jars (among other things) especially in
the '40s. Cookie jars with lids and decoration intact are sometimes a task
to find, since little hands greasy with cookie crumbs can be clumsy. This
particular one is $215.00, and is the Hobby Horse cookie jar, with it's
original sticker, as well as marked on the bottom. |
