Measuring 9.75 inches in diameter and 3.75 inches high, this gorgeous, Ohio-made, circa 1920's, yellowware fruit bowl features fabulous blue sponging with gold gilt highlights along its decoratively embossed and scalloped rim. The bowl sits upon a one inch high foot and has glaze crazing typical of an 85+ year old piece of pottery. No chips, cracks, or hairlines. One teeny, tiny fleabite on rim too small to be photographed with any clarity. An outstanding piece of American Spongeware! Becoming much more difficult to find- particularly in this outstanding condition!

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!

No flaws, just a warm, mellow patina typical of its 80+ years of age! A work of art in design, this piece would well stand alone without a book or newspaper to cover its image of a young newspaper carrier hawking the daily news! The word “PAPER” flanked by two, 6-pointed stars and a lightening bolt running through the newspaper all add to this items phenomenal visual appeal! The piece features a sturdy, movable stand on the back, as well as two curled, “feet” at the base front in which to place one’s book or newspaper. The perfect, unique addition to one’s ART DECO collection!

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!
