Each one of this pair of vintage retro pilsner glasses stands 8 1/4 inches tall and holds a little over 9 ounces. This shape was extremely popular post WWII. Hazel-Atlas and Libbey Glass made many of these glasses. I am not sure which company made these, but they are 20th century and American made glass. Each glass is decorated in transfers of early 20th century / late 19th century coaches, jitneys, carriages. The colors are black white and gold. The top rim is also decorated with gold. Would look great in the bar of a car collector! Add them to your barware or drink collection today.

The city of Winooski's name is taken from the Abenaki language for "this is where the wild onions grow." So, Onion River Pottery makes perfect sense as a Vermont pottery name. Glazed in a dark blue which shows some of the mottling of the glaze over a red-clay base clay, this is an attractive pair of candleholders which would look perfect with either a Mid-century flavor or retro decor or a Country look. I think that the Onion River Pottery was somehow connected to another pottery company in Vermont called the Goss Pottery as they share similar styling, base clay color, shapes and glazes but further research is needed.

With over a century and a quarter of continuity, the firm can claim a rich heritage of product innovation and pride in an enduring quality of craftsmanship that has been passed from one generation to the next. It is still in operation and owned by Libbey. This diner or restaurant coffee mug comes from the era in which they specialized in hotel/restaurant/railroad china ware of which this is a good example. It is marked January 1924 and is Mark 3 shown on page 456 of the Lehner Pottery Mark Book. This 3 3/4 inch tall coffee mug may seem skimpy by today's Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts standards, but at the time it was made in the 1920-1950 period, this was a standard size for a coffee mug. It features a double band of red near the rim. It holds exactly 8 ounces. Go green! Save resources and purchase a piece of America's past.

This vase stands 7 inches tall and is 3 inches wide at the mouth. It is done in the Brutalist manner of the late 1950s-early 1970s.

A bland band is at the bottom and the top Above the bottom black band there is a band of black diagonal lines. A very abstract bird with orange eye and tail circles the vase.

The vase is in excellent condition. The piece is signed simply in capital leters MADE IN ITALY with a sans serif font as opposed to the Toscany pieces with a serif font for the word Italy. This funky and retro Mid-century pottery was probably made in Italy by the Toscany Company, of Empoli Italy. Empoli is a town in Tuscany about 20 miles south of Florence. Empoli is also not far from Montelupo, a famous center of Italian pottery made for export to the United States. The silver label seen on identical pieces seems to be restricted to the 1945-1970 time period. Another possibility is that it is from the studio of Bruno Bagnoli, who worked for Bitossi at Montelupo.

It evolved into a co-operative of different art potters. They made their bread and butter by making gorgeous modern styled dinnerware that was distributed throughout the US and sold in fine department stores but this is an earlier more studio inspired piece. David Gil, trained at Alfred University and profiled in the Winter 1961 issue of Vermont Life, started Bennington Potters in 1948 in Bennington, VT right after WWII. This version of the iconic double trigger mug stands 8 inches tall. This vase is glazed with a high gloss Vermont Green glaze on the inside and on the outside. It dates from the 1948-1959 period before Gil used the term Bennington Potters on his pieces. According to yet to be authenticated information, the suggestion for the double trigger handle was given to David Gil by one Maurice A. Douglass, a resident of Bennington Vermont and a collector of early Norton Pottery. In the 1964 catalogue, there are 3 sizes of the double trigger mug shown but not this very tall #1372 size. This beautifully deisgned and balanced 1372 trigger mug is in excellent condition.

It is from the the post-1960 time period when Gil began to use the words Bennington Potters on pieces after having used a transition mark which included both the words Design Cooperative and Bennington Vermont. This fluted 9 5/8 inch diameter plate was advertised in the 1964 catalogue as B 1653 and titled "Daisies", an ashtray which could also be hung on the wall as a plaque as it had a built-in wire on the back. Its original 1964 price was $5.00. It features six stylized daisies. The stems, leaves, and petals are incised. The 1964 ad states the this piece was available in white or turquoise with colored accents. The glaze I believe is an early white one as it is quite high gloss with some mottling in the glaze giving the color depth. The steams and leaves have been accented in a dark olive green and the flowers are accented in dark brown. I believe that this series of ashtrays 1650-1655 was designed by David Gil's first wife Gloria Gil, who also designed the 1553 Fighting Cock tile. and perhaps all the tiles in that series. The back of the plate/plaque is missing the wire hanger which was embedded in the pottery. It is signed 1653 and has the spark mark on the forearm. I would guess it is from the 1960-1964 period. It is in excellent condition. Bennington Potters are among the few American studio potteries that turned into production potteries in the midcentury. It evolved into a co-operative of different art potters. After 1960, they made their bread and butter by making gorgeous modern styled dinnerware that was distributed throughout the US and sold in fine department stores.

Its original 1964 price was $5.00. It features six stylized daisies. The stems, leaves, and petals are incised. The 1964 ad states the this piece was available in white or turquoise with colored accents. The glaze I believe is an early white one as it is quite high gloss with some mottling in the glaze giving the color depth. The steams and leaves have been accented in a dark olive green and the flowers are accented in dark brown. This is a confirmed David Gil design. It was confirmed by Gloria Gil in May 2012. The back of the plate/plaque has a wire hanger which was embedded in the pottery. It is signed 1653 and has the spark mark on the forearm. I would guess it is from the 1960-1964 period. It is in excellent condition. Bennington Potters are among the few American studio potteries that turned into production potteries in the midcentury. It evolved into a co-operative of different art potters. After 1960, they made their bread and butter by making gorgeous modern styled dinnerware that was distributed throughout the US and sold in fine department stores.  Here is a whimsical modern stoneware piece from the late David Gil at Bennington Potters in Vermont, started by David Gil in 1948. It is part of the tableware set designed by Gil with mold numbers 1365 (followed by a letter) and it is referred to as the "Old Bennington" collection. David Gil designed the pieces, largely beginning in the early mid fifties, not likely adding to the collection after Yusuke Aida came on board and was commissioned to design the next collection there, (the so-called "Classic Bennington") in 1961. Pieces from this series were produced well into - if not through -  the 70's, based on backstamp styles alone, as can be seen on the bottom of this piece. This is the 1365I 8 1/4" wide salad plate in a standard glaze color for this line. It is a dark teal color. It is in excellent condition. It is signed on the bottom with the stamped "bennington potters, bennington vermont" mark and the shape number 1365I. Add it to your Mid-century dinnerware or your Bennington Potters collection today.  This Duncan & Miller tab handled two-part relish dish measures 7 1/2 inches across and stands 1 inch high.

The Teardrop pattern is shown and listed on pages 197-199 in the Ninth Edition (2001) of the Florence's Elegant Glassware of the Depression Era book. There it is valued at $20. My price is quite a bit lower as it bought it very very reasonably. Fill it with cranberry relish or bonbons, it's time to celebrate!

This is an attractive and very functional pink crystal vase in Anchor Hocking Prismatic pattern. The Criss Cross pattern was produced in the the Depression Era. The vase is 6 5/8" tall and 5 7/8" across the top. The base is 3 1/4" across. The vase is in very good condition with clear clean pink glass.

Standing 3 1/2 inches tall, this Noritake Art Deco figural flower frog depicts what to me seems like a kingfisher (serious birder here). The stump with the five openings for flower stems is done in Noritake's classic tan luster. The back and head of the bird are done in blue luster. The bill is black as are the pupils. The irises are yellow with a purple band through the eye. The feet are black. It is marked with the standard MADE IN JAPAN mark. I guarantee it to be Noritake. A very similar figurine is shown on page 172 of David Spain's 1999 Collecting Noritake A to Z book and is valued there at $260-290. As I bought this very reasonably my price is much lower. It is in excellent vintage condition. Add it to your Noritake, Art Deco or bird inspired collection today.  This cute little fellow is a pin dish made by the Noritake Company in the 1935-1931 time period. One can see it pictured in plate D.236 on page 130 of David Spain's 2004 Art Deco Noritake & More book. this particular example has a white dog with red mouth and black nose and facial features. The tray part of the dish is the harder-to-find Noritake yellow luster and the rim is done in matte black paint, a typical Noritake Art Deco treatment. It is in excellent condition. It is signed with the standard green Wreath mark. Add it to your Noritake collection today. In Spain's book, it is valued at $100-$180 but my price is much lower as I bought it extremely reasonably last summer.  This cute little fellow is a pin dish made by the Noritake Company in the 1935-1931 time period.

It is a standard Noritake shape, but it is unusual to see it NOT signed with the post-1921 Noritake mark but with an earlier purple M in wreath mark. I would place this piece in the 1920-1925 time period before the company consciously adoped Art Deco motifs, colors and styling. It is very practical and functional piece of china and is ready for your holiday table. The cream color band would complement many contemporary Noritake dinnerware patterns. The four floral cartouches are all hand-painted. The more Victorian motif of prunus flower blossoms are done in 24K gold and form a basket shape around the floral cartouches. There were most likely 6 smaller cake plates which went with this cake plate. It is in excellent vintage shape. Add it to your Nippon or Noritake collection today.

A similar compote is shown on page 97 of David Spain's 2004 Art Deco Noritake and More book and shown therein as plate B. 737. All Noritake Art Deco was produced between 19255 and 1931.

It is done in the Turquoise glaze. The mark on the back shows that this piece, though a 1960s design, was produced later, probably in the early 1970s as it uses the lower case letters for all the words. It was meant to go with the #1537 12 oz. 3 inch tall Double Mug. Originally a dozen mug and saucers were priced at $30 a dozen in the 1964 catalogue. In the Mid-century tradition of multiple uses for an item, it is still a very versatile and functional piece for today's home. It is in excellent condition.

She has painted side-glancing blue eyes and very good coloring. Her clothes are glued on, so it is impossible to see if there are any markings without risking damaging her. Her arms move, but her legs and head are stationery. She is wearing her original Scottish outfit consisting of a long sleeve red and green plaid taffeta dress with a pleated skirt, a matching scarf with metal motif, a black felt vest, a white ribbon sash with tie, and painted on white with black boots trimmed with black ribbon with white flower motifs, and white net underpants.
