About the Item

Here is a lovely and rare covered box by Glidden Pottery and most likely designed by Fong Chow who worked for Glidden from 1953 to 1957. This very striking example is glazed in satin black with hand-painted stripes in brown and white. The box is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks or repairs. The box is signed Glidden on the underside with the number 223. A real find! About Glidden Pottery: Glidden Pottery produced unique stoneware, dinnerware and artware in Alfred, New York from 1940 to 1957. The company was established by Glidden Parker, who had studied ceramics at the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University. Glidden Pottery's mid-century designs combined molded stoneware forms with hand-painted decoration. The New Yorker magazine described Glidden Pottery as "distinguished by a mat surface, soft color combinations, and, in general, well-thought-out forms that one won't see duplicated in other wares. Glidden was sold in leading department stores across the country. Fong Chow (b. Tianjin, China, 1923–2012) joined Glidden Pottery as a designer in 1953 after graduating from Alfred University and continued with the company until it closed in 1957. In addition to designing shapes and decoration, Fong Chow developed glazes and came up with the names for the product lines he developed.
