Antique Rookwood Pottery Hand Painted Vessel Gorham Engraved Silver Decoration
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...

Deruta Italian Ceramic Set Three Hand Painted Wall Plates
Located in Prato, Tuscany
We kindly suggest you read the whole description, because with it we try to give you detailed technical and historical information to guarantee the authenticity of our objects. Three delightful and colorful round ceramic wall plates; they were created completely by hand between 1965 and 1968 by a small artisan workshop in Deruta (Perugia, Italy) respecting ancient traditions and raw materials; clay, enamel, colors, water, fire and the hands of the artist: these are the simple elements that lead to the creation of a ceramic article; on the back they have two holes so they can be hung on the wall; they represent characters in Renaissance clothing, each in a different pose: the first is a swordsman who wields a special weapon of the time the "side sword" with S-shaped guard and a dagger with guard very elaborate, useful to trap the blade of the opponent; the "spada da lato" (side sword) is that elegant and handy sword that, from the second half of the fifteenth century and throughout the sixteenth century, is worn on the belt by nobles or rich, a weapon designed for self-defense or to be used in a duel; In fact the second plate represents just a duel in which the two contenders always use "swords side", the one on the left also has a small shield and the one on the right wields an effective and perfidiously fast double-edged dagger; In the third plate is painted a "naccarino" who plays a cylindrical drum (similar to those spread by the Lanzichenecchi from the fifteenth-sixteenth century) held on the side and beaten with two sticks, the "naccarini" were players of small instruments whose presence was required every time you had to give particular solemnity to a public event. We don't know why the people of Deruta began to work the terracotta and to produce vases and manufactured articles in ceramics but we know with all certainty that already in the Middle Ages the city was known for the production of ceramics of high quality, the first written sources make to date the ceramics of Deruta (Perugia) to 1282. In the Renaissance, they were active to Deruta more than fifty furnaces with which they collaborated artists like the Perugino, the Pinturicchio, and Luca Signorelli. The mastery of the artisans and artists of Deruta ceramics...

Antique and Vintage Ceramics

Whether you’re adding an eye-catching mid-century modern glazed stoneware bowl to your dining table or grouping a collection of decorative plates by color for the shelving in your living room, decorating and entertaining with antique and vintage ceramics is a great way to introduce provocative pops of colors and textures to a space or family meals.

Ceramics, which includes pottery such as earthenware and stoneware, has had meaningful functional value in civilizations all over the world for thousands of years. When people began to populate permanent settlements during the Neolithic era, which saw the rapid growth of agriculture and farming, clay-based ceramics were fired in underground kilns and played a greater role as important containers for dry goods, water, art objects and more.

Today, if an Art Deco floor vase, adorned in bright polychrome glazed colors with flowers and geometric patterns, isn’t your speed, maybe minimalist ceramics can help you design a room that’s both timeless and of the moment. Mixing and matching can invite conversation and bring spirited contrasts to your outdoor dining area. The natural-world details enameled on an Art Nouveau vase might pair well with the sleek simplicity of a modern serving bowl, for example.

In your kitchen, your cabinets are likely filled with ceramic dinner plates. You’re probably serving daily meals on stoneware dishes or durable sets of porcelain or bone china, while decorative ceramic dishes may be on display in your dining room. Perhaps you’ve anchored a group of smaller pottery pieces on your mantelpiece with some taller vases and vessels, or a console table in your living room is home to an earthenware bowl with a decorative seasonal collection of leaves, greenery and acorns.

Regardless of your tastes, however, it’s possible that ceramics are already in use all over your home and outdoor space. If not, why? Whatever your needs may be, find a wide range of antique and vintage ceramics on 1stDibs.
