Western Stoneware Pottery

vintage Western Stoneware bowl, made in USA. It is actually a much darker brown than what is pictured, as I had to use my flash. The bowl measures 9 3/4 in diameter and is approximately 5 in height. The outside is ringed. The bottom is stamped with the familiar W inside of a maple leaf. The top rim is unglazed, as is the bottom of the rim. There are no chips, cracks or breaks, other than firing marks and is in overall great condition!

Three vintage Monmouth spatterware items for one price! c:1967. Incised Maple Leaf with Momnouth Ill USA. Note the old State abbreviation. First is the covered casserole; it is in nice condition and bottom part is 4 tall x 7 wide not counting lid. Next is the batter bowl; it is 4.75 tall x 7.75 wide. Last is the mixing bowl that is 4.5 tall x 7.75 wide. All are in good usable condition, no chips or cracks. Lehner's book states that the clay used by Western is heat-resistant, and lead-free, so you can use this if you want! Western Stoneware Co. was only in business from 1906-1985. 8/10hhestcs-r

Great looking vintage Monmouth buttermilk pitcher. Stoneware; good condition and usable. Stands 6.25 tall. Raised Monmouth USA on bottom. 5/10esa#3099

Vintage Monmouth Art Pottery herb jar. c:1941. Awesome old herb jar; well made; thick, heavy duty. Stands 6.5 tall; no chips or cracks. Not marked but is clearly identifiable on the Monmouth book by J. Martin, 1983, pg. 141. Buff color clay; some dirt on interior. Great to display or use for herbs or sedums indoors or out! You can't buy good pottery like this today. A new item from a garden store will cost less, but won't last a summer. This has been around for 71 years and still looks great! I also have this item in the matte green, which likely dates to the 1920's. 12/09ant#2748

Monmouth American Art Pottery Jardiniere Flower Pot White horizontal ribbed jardiniere with hanging leaves. I believe this is the outer portion of a two piece jardiniere which originally had a pot with a lip which set into it. Both parts combined make a lovely flower planter. It is white stoneware pottery with unglazed interior and semi-matte exteriour glaze. Unmarked - I think made by the Monmouth Pottery / Western Stoneware Company in Monmouth, Illinois. Measures 5 1/8 inches tall X 4 ¾ inches diameter at top. Outer surface is very nice. NO chips, cracks, or scratches. There is a little light crazing, 2 tiny bubble pops, some tiny black specks and pimples in the pottery, and a few very light minor metal marks. Interior shows rust residue. Maybe you have the other piece. Nice addition to a vintage Pottery Collection.

Old Sleepy Eye White & Cobalt Blue 8 inch #4 Pitcher. Old Sleepy Eye was a Sioux Indian Chief born in Minnesota in 1780. A town and a flour mill were named after him. In 1906 - Western Stoneware Co. of Monmouth Illinois started producing Cobalt & White items with the bust of the Indian Chief. These pitchers - creamers - sugars - salt boxes - vases - and other items were used as everyday utilitarian wares. This very collectible #4 pitcher measures approx 8 inches tall to top of spout. It does have some crazing and staining from age that could be bleached out. There are a couple very tiny lower rim chips and one that is one glaze - made during manufacturing. See photos.

Monmouth Pottery Yellow Hanging Flower Pot Vase Planter Unmarked. Small hanging pot with 2 handles for string. Measures 4 1/4 inches high X 5 3/8 inches diameter hanger to hanger. NO chips - cracks - scratches. There are a few very light rubs along the upper rim and very fine overall crazing which is hard to see unless held under light. It has the usual small bubble pops - small pottery chunks inside - some tiny black specs / marks under glaze - and one small 1/8 inch rust spot about 1 inch up from the bottom. I think this is Monmouth - the marking on bottom confuses me. It is marked with an embossed U.S.A. inside an impressed rectangle.
