18th-century English Creamware Whieldon-type Tortoiseshell Tea Bowl Saucer
By Thomas Whieldon Pottery
Located in Downingtown, PA
"Clouded Perfection": 18th Century English Creamware Whieldon-type Tea Bowl & Saucer A superb example of mid-18th century English pottery, this Creamware Tea Bowl and Saucer displays the distinctive "clouded" or "tortoiseshell" glazing technique associated with Thomas Whieldon and his contemporaries in Staffordshire and Yorkshire. The set features a refined cream-colored earthenware body, decorated with sponged or applied metal oxides—specifically manganese for rich browns and copper for vibrant green splashes—creating a marbled, organic surface pattern. A defining feature of this particular model is the delicate band of molded pearl beading (relief dots) that encircles the exterior rim of the cup and frames the central well of the saucer, adding a tactile and geometric contrast to the fluid glaze. Provenance: Jonathan Horne...

Eugenio Pattarino Ceramic Charger
By Eugenio Pattarino
Located in St.Petersburg, FL
A fantastic and rare ceramic charger by Eugenio Pattarino. Vibrant red color and Classic Italian Mid-Century style is represented very well in this piece. Eugenio Pattarino was born in 1885 and passed away in 1971. He was a master sculptor and model maker and taught in art schools in both Venice and Frankfort, Germany. In the late 1940s he opened his own studio in Florence. His factory used both “EPF” and “CAPEF” (Artistic Ceramics Professor Eugene Pattarino) to mark his pieces. His studio is best known for its large religious statutes, many of which reside in a number of churches in Italy and the U.S. In the 1950s Pattarino had more than fifty artists working for him and some among them were considered the best ceramists in Italy. At this time Eugenio was joined by his son, Ranier, and the company began concentrating on more eclectic themes. These pieces, when new, were quite expensive when they were purchased but almost never garner anywhere near their original cost at today's auctions. The factory claimed that the Vatican used Pattarino’s ceramics as gifts to famous visitors, including President John Kennedy, Andre Gide and Paul Sartre. Unfortunately there is no proof to back these claims. As a matter of fact I have discovered that the Pattarino name is almost generally unknown in Italy and even lesser known in Florence. His name is, however, recognized here in the United States and most of the factory’s output can be found in the U.S. where it was imported. In November 1966 the Arno River flooded its bank and inundated most of Florence. Work to restore damaged art...

Antique Rookwood Pottery Hand Painted Vessel Gorham Engraved Silver Decoration
By Rookwood Pottery Co., Gorham
Located in Cincinnati, OH
This late 19th century glazed earthenware mug was crafted in the studios of Cincinnati Ohio's renowned Rookwood Pottery Company and has a traditional form with an ear-shaped handle having a thumb rest. The exterior of the piece is finished in standard glaze and features hand painted decoration executed by highly regarded artist William Purcell McDonald (1864-1931). The decor has an appealing wine harvest theme consisting of grape vines that snake across the surface. The vines are studded with leaves in various shades of green along with two dangling clusters of plump reddish grapes. McDonald's application of paint is slightly raised in places giving the image a dimensional quality. The mug is further ornamented with an ornate silver overlay manufactured by Gorham. The silver decoration covers the handle and rim and includes a series of large etched foliate scrolls and flowers that extend across the body. There is also an eye-catching latticed area that provides a strong visual contrast with the gentle curving motifs found on the other parts of the silver overlay. The underside of the mug has an impressed RP mark along with shape 422 and the letter W. It also carries the incised initials of the artist - W. P. McD - and the letter L. The underside of the silver foot rim is stamped Gorham Manufacturing Co. along with a hand engraved mark reading S 1274 S. This highly collectible Rookwood silver...
