Does anyone know the pottery maker for these?

Question

I pulled these from my uncles house so they have to be at least 1950s 60s or?  No markings. Looked on eBay and etsy but no names?  HELP?!

Beautiful pieces . . . quite a find. I'm a pottery lover, but don't know alot about the different types. Hull usually has a mark on the bottom. Enjoy them! No microwave or dishwasher!

Julie Moyna · Answer

I'm a collector too. Mostly California pieces. It's not hull unless they didn't mark these. I do know no mic or dishwasher. Lol. I pulled some amazing sets and individual pieces I'll be posting. Thank you!

Terri Austill · Answer

I've been an antique dealer over 20 years and I've seen a lot of these no-name pieces. They're from the 60's-70's, and unfortunately are not very valuable except for sentimental reasons. Love them and enjoy them because they remind you of your uncle!

Barbara Brewer · Answer

Julie, afraid terri is right been in the biz only abt 10 years as terri said USE & ENJOY

Beverly · Answer

If I remember correctly the pottery manufacturer is Hull.

Colleen Swiridowsky · Answer

I don't know who either, but I have a soup bowl and a small bowl in those same colors and I truly love them! Picked them up at a tag sale.

I can tell you that they are NOT Hull pieces. I've been collecting Hull and the pottery you have shown for many many moons. Almost all of the ones I own have the engraved USA mark on the bottom except for one - and it's a small 1 pint pitcher that has the markings 'Made in England by Pearson's of Chesterfield'. I met an antique dealer while back in PA the past summer - he had quite a collection, many of which I own. He told me the name and I recognized it, but for crying out loud I just CANNOT remember the name!!! Too many senior moments lately!!! I simply call them 'brownware' for the time being - I absolutely LOVE all your pieces - I have the same ones and a gazillion more!!

It might be McCoy Potter
Does that sound like the name you might have been looking for?

Didn't Safeway sell these for 99 cents after you bought a certain amount of groceries??

Marsha Lamberth · Answer

I had a set of 4 of the little covered dishes with handles back in the 70's. They are called onion soup bowls. I don't remember if they had markings or not.

Susan Duvall · Answer

Pfaltzcraft used to make this style, but they stopped production 20 years ago and the factory is closed now, even the outlet store where we used to buy replacement pieces is out of business. York, PA

could be redwing, they usually stamp theirs though, I actually found a pitcher like that the other day, it was stamped into it on bottom but was sort of worn off in part, could make out that it was Redwing though

Julie Moyna · Answer

Thanks to all of your suggestions.  I haven't nailed the maker down yet but do you think they are safe to use?  (Lead in paint?). I know the new ones are not bad. But these being so old I wonder.  Thanks!

Therese Ryan-Haas · Answer

Had a few of these growing up. Mother would make french onion soup in them. A friend of hers made them at home in the 60's. I think unless they are signed there is no telling were they are from.
 Maybe someone who has more experience might chime in. But I recall from High school days the glazing on the unshiny ones were not food friendly. But the clear glazing is like a glass coating that is food and oven save.

Julia Flowers · Answer

I have seen all the thoughts and had the name all ready to post, and blam! for the life of me I cannot remember. If I think of it soon I will post.

Sharril Swindle · Answer
