Catalogue: Vintage Arts: Decorative Art: Ceramics: American: Pottery: Pre 1930   item# 487840 (stock# 681(G))

C1920 Ohio Yellowware Blue Spongeware Fruit Bowl w/Gilt

Stonegate Antiques
860-712-9565


$125.00 

Measuring 9 inches in diameter and 2.75 inches high, this gorgeous, Ohio-made, yellowware fruit bowl features fabulous blue sponging with gold gilt highlights along its decoratively embossed and scalloped rim.

The bowl has glaze crazing typical of an 85+ year old piece of pottery. An extremely tight hairline on one side of the bowl has been photographed for one’s perusal. It does not affect structural integrity, and the pricing of the bowl reflects this imperfection. No other flaws!

An outstanding piece of American Spongeware! Becoming much more difficult to find- particularly in this condition!

This unique wooden kite string winder likely dates to circa 1920 or so! Measuring 9 inches high x 6.50 inches wide x 5 inches deep, this piece remains in all-original condition. It has a unique and decorative wooden winding mechanism that is hand cranked via a heavy metal and glass crank which protrudes from one side of the winder. A home-made piece without a maker's mark. An interesting, visually-appealing conversation piece!

C1920 Itinerant FOLK ART Oil Painting NIAGARA FALLS

C1920 Itinerant FOLK ART Oil Painting NIAGARA FALLS
 click for details

Stonegate Antiques
860-712-9565


$100.00 

Measuring 14.25 inches x 7.25 inches, this circa 1920's, Folk Art oil painting by an unknown itinerant artist expresses the artist's interpretation of a moonlit Niagara Falls.

The painting retains its original black painted wood frame, and it is backed by the original, sturdy, mounting board.

The scene is dominated by sultry blue tones with accents of white in the snow-capped mountain peaks and red flowers in the fore-ground.

The painting does have a bit of superficial, light scuffing here and there with slight remnants of adhesive evident and some age-related soiling-- all consistent with the painting's age. In general, these blemishes are not readily or easily evident. Please study close-up photos to make your own determination. Additionally, a circular remnant of a dark substance is evident at the center base of the painting; it has been partially removed by the previous owner.

A serene and tranquil painting!

$395.00 

Measuring 21.5” wide x 29.5” long, this beautiful, cotton baby’s crib quilt features 12 machine-stitched, black schoolhouses on a cream colored ground bordered by red banding. A highly sought after quilting pattern! The quilt backing is secured in place with red stitches; no batting appears to be in place between front and back quilt pieces. Maker’s stamp (??) appears at lower right back of quilt; wording is indiscernible.

Condition is wonderful with no holes, stains or tears!

Newly acquired from a CT estate where the quilt had been in storage since the 1960's.


1910 Native American Sweet Grass + Poplar Sewing Basket

1910 Native American Sweet Grass + Poplar Sewing Basket
 click for details

Stonegate Antiques
860-712-9565


$115.00 

Measuring 10 inches in diameter x 3.50 inches high, this early 20th century Sweet Grass and Poplar splint basket is stamped “Made In Canada” on its base. This exquisite sewing basket was made by Native Americans residing in Canada near the Maine border for the purpose of selling to the tourist trade--- the wealthy New Englanders who frequented the Maine Coastline towns during the summers!

The basket is truly in near prefect condition with two tiny breaks to the delicate splint --- hardly noticeable to the eye and certainly not affecting the structural integrity of the piece in any way. Lovely construction!

When the lid is removed and the interior of the basket and underside of the lid is visible, one sees that some of the splint was at one time dyed blue with vegetable dye. The exterior side of this once dyed splint, has long since returned to its natural color due to years of exposure to the light of day.

Vintage Native American baskets are becoming exceedingly scarce! An especially desirable example due to its fine construction and condition!
