How do I identify Troika pottery?
1 Answer

To identify Troika pottery, first look for a maker's mark. Many pieces feature a handwritten signature on the base. These markings varied over the years but always included the Troika name. By comparing the signature on your piece to images available on trusted online resources, you can get a rough idea of when your pottery was produced. If your pottery doesn't have a mark, you can search databases for images of pieces similar to yours. Troika manufactured rough and glazed pottery and is particularly well-known for using geometric motifs inspired by Indigenous designs. A certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer can help you identify unmarked Troika wares. Find a range of Troika pottery on 1stDibs.
