Title: Rare Pisgah Forest Pottery Tea Set by
Walter Stephen
|
| |
Description
Rare Pisgah Forest tea set handmade by the founder of Pisgah Forest Pottery, Walter
Stephen. Mr Stephen, who passed away in 1962, was widely known for his distinctive cameo pottery from the
famed Pisgah Forest Pottery in North Carolina. Many of his works can be found in museums and 100s of homes,
including the White House. This particular set has a beautiful blue glaze and a white porcelain overlay
depicting a western scene of a pioneer family probably headed west in a covered wagon being pulled by oxen.
Behind the wagon is a horse carrying two people following along. The family dog is also there scampering
ahead and the scene also includes birds and a mountain in the background. Entire set is signed Stephen .
Inside glaze of all 3 pieces is an exquisite mauve color. This set is a true rarity, and the historical
relevance is undeniable. This type of pottery is referred to as Mountain Wedgwood and is very
collectible today. There is no damage to the set and the interior of the pieces has a pinkish glaze. |

Title: Old Chinese Game Porcelain Markers
|
| |
Description
I honestly have no idea what game these went to, several older Chinese say the markings are Chinese but they do not recognize what the game would be. They are symbols on one side and lettering for words on the other. There are round shapes, hexagonal and ovals as well. They would be good to use in pendants or would make interesting rings. Numerous sizes but nothing larger than an American half dollar size. There are a total of 36 pieces and you are bidding on the entire lot. My guess is that the circa date on these would be the last quarter of the 19th Century. |
