We found these four planters completely irresistible. Two are olive green, three are forest green. The forest green footed planter has a pale drip glazed rim.
Planter #1 - Made by Brush Potteries, this is a quilted patterned olive green planter, style #100-8. Made in Zanesville, Ohio, I think this style was made between 1906 and 1911, before Brush merged with McCoy. It is 6\" long and 3.25\" across. Inside is approximately 2.5\" deep. The style number is under the glaze on the bottom, which has unglazed feet.
Planter #2 - I am calling this a vase because of its elongated form and opening inside. It, too, is olive green. It is an 8\" high goblet style vase with a 3\" opening at the top and roughly 3\" round base. Unmarked, it has the unglazed feet characteristic of American Bisque. I did not, however, find any examples of this vase on any AB sites, so I cannot say for sure AB is the manufacturer.
Planter #3 - This planter can be seen at a number of sites on the internet and is always identified as McCoy. The markings on the base \"CP 1445\" seems to point to a generic California Pottery, but in any case, this is a really pretty planter.
Planter #4 - This planter is a Greek Revival Goblet/pedestal planter. It could be Hull or McCoy. The bottom is unmarked and unglazed. It stands 6.5\" tall with a 4.25\" opening and a 3.5\" round base.
Planter/Vase #5: This is a heavy art pottery vase from the mid or early 20th century. It has a lovely curve and glaze and two elegant handles. The shape and color suggest Stangl, Frankoma or even possibly McCoy, but it is not marked. It is a little over 8\" tall, 5\" wide, and the base has a diameter of 4.25\".
I know nothing about this vase...it is not marked. However, it has been well taken care of and has no chips or cracks, and just a little crackle. The shot of the bottom shows that the glaze is rather haphazardly applied there, but it covers the public sides nicely. The photo with the ruler shows the extent of crackle.
All of these are in good used condition. There were no cracks or chips. Planter #2, the olive green goblet, has an area on the rim where the glaze did not fully cover the pottery. Please look closely at the photograph to see this. It is not damaged. This is a firing flaw.
