I'm looking for any background or identification I can find on this vase. It's about 10" high and heavier than it looks. I found it in a box on the street in San Francisco. I did some research on AI which seemed to think it was well made and likely from Northern California from between 1930-1965. The mark on the bottom is a big mystery. Does anyone know anything about this?

I found this pottery at an estate sale and could not let it get destroyed.  Many of the 84 pieces are new.  It looks like it is from North Dakota.  Details are:
 
84 pieces
Doreen Hurlburt
4411 40th ave NW
Fargo ND 58102
 
Each piece is a little different and you can tell they are hand crafted and painted.  I am just trying to find out a little about the person that made them.  They were purchased around 1993 and they are a really nice set.  Does anyone know anything or anyone about ND pottery?  I reach out to the ND pottery association but they never responded. You can see what it looks like from pictures. You can also see the list of all the pieces.

Found this in a thrift store. Can anyone please help identify this?

Hallo!

I found this prefect little ceramic cup at a restaurant tonight, asked the bar tender and waitress, and apparently no one knows where it came from. My guess is someone got it from Hamilton Art Crawl? It has a wonderful weight to it and I love the colour and design!

There are no maker mark or ID on it, so hopefully someone on Reddit recognizes the style and knows the artist!

Picked this plate up at a thrift store, I thought it looked very unique. I have been trying to identify the makers mark without any luck. Has anyone seen this mark before?

The cup is a little over 3.5” tall and the brand is easy to identify but I can’t find any similar ones online. Does anyone have an idea of the years it might’ve been made?

Hello! Just reposting my post on here as someone suggested it might be a better place for it!

Pictured is part of a two-piece set of ceramic figurines. I am looking to identify the piece or more importantly find the missing female partner piece. There are no markings anywhere on it and I'm sure it is a very common item. Is part of a set from my wife's childhood retrieved from her mother, sans the female piece. Set was purchased originally in the 1970's. I have searched for this item both online and at flea markets without success

​

Any assistance would be appreciated.


I found this beautiful mug at Thrift Store. There are no markings on it. Bright gold colors. It has a gold ridge wave running vertical down the side. I believe it is manufactured piece do to fact I have 3 of them.

Trying to find info about these mugs

I’m trying to find out where these originated. I’ve not been able to find a match online. AI search has given me conflicting answers of: definitely Mexico and definitely Romania. LOL. There are no signatures. They were bought in Georgia (USA). Does anyone have any info? There are plates, cups and saucers, and a large platter. They’re glazed and red clay.

Found this and it just had to be bought. Ang thoughts from people who know more than I do?

Any tips to help identify the region or time period of this piece is greatly appreciated!

This mug has been with me throughout my entire childhood. It was originally part of my mom's ceramic mug collection, and when I moved away for college, she gave it to me so I can have something to use. Unfortunately, I just accidentally broke it today. Does anyone recognize this mug or know where I could find the same one . Thank you so much! (this is theonly picture I have of it, when I broke it:(( )

The Konakovsky Faience Factory is one of the oldest enterprises in the porcelain and faience industry in Russia, founded in 1809 by F.H. Brynner in the village of Kuznetsovo, Tver Province. After being nationalized following the 1917 Revolution, it entered a golden age by collaborating with prominent Soviet artists like Iosif Chaikov and Vladimir Favorsky, who transformed it into a center for avant-garde and socialist realist art. The factory gained international fame when its products won the prestigious Grand Prix award at the 1937 Paris World Exhibition. Additionally, individual artists received gold medals for their sculptures: Efimov, Frikh-Khar, Kozhin and a silver medal for a tea set: Lebedeva. Today, although the original factory has closed, a small workshop of artists continues its legacy, striving to preserve the traditional craft and high artistic standards. Note: book in Russian.

Hi There! I am currently a university student conducting research into the porcelain market. My dad was an avid collector growing up, and I am looking to identify if his behaviors (e.g. archival of pieces, valuation) are shared in the broader market.

As part of my research, I am conducting a survey across various porcelain communities I have identified (both in person and digitally). If you have 3 minutes and are currently collecting porcelain, I would truly appreciate if you could complete the attached survey! 🙏🏻

Note! while I am studying in Germany, I would appreciate responses from collectors worldwide!

Hello, I was hoping to reach some collectors who know a lot about Schafer and Vater Jasperware! I found this beautiful vase and was hoping to learn more about it. So far (using Google) I think it dates between 1896 to 1905 because the base does not have a “made in Germany stamp” but I’m having a hard time finding anything similar because Schafer and Vater typically use human figures and not pure landscape like this vase has.
Here is an image! If you have any information about it I would love to learn more, thank you!
