For Sale I have a Lovely Vase made by The Weller Pottery Company of Zanesville, Ohio. The Pattern is "Cornish" and it is extremely popular amongst Weller Pottery Collectors. The Vase is known as a Squat Shape. The Vase stands 3 1/8" tall and is 4 3/4" in diameter outside handles measurements. The Vase has a very pleasing and rare Two Toned Brown Glaze Combination. It is almost like Weller Goldenglow Glaze except it has Two Tones of Golden Brown. The Vase displays embossed leaves on a stem with berries hanging from the concentric ring that surrounds the neck of the vessel on the front side. The leaves haven an outstanding Green Brown life like Glaze. The berries are a light blue and deep blue/black. The back side is plain and displays this wonderful Brown Two Toned Glaze. This pattern has eluded me for many years. When I have come across items in this pattern, they always seem to have damage, so I never buy them. I am Happy to report this one Does Not!! The Vase is considered to be in excellent condition as there are no cracks, nicks, chips or dings. There are signs of use as there is a Calcium deposit ring on the inside of the Vase. This cannot be seen when displayed. It can also be removed by using 400 grit or higher wet sand paper. You lightly sand the raised portion while running it under water and it will come right off. The outside is very clean and sharp!! The Vase is signed on the bottom with the incised Script "Weller" cipher along with the Script letter "B" in black. This was more than likely the Artist or finisher's mark. Those of you who collect this Weller pattern will welcome this example and Rare Glaze for this Pattern. I have been a dealer and collector for some 35+ years and I have never seen Cornish made with this 2 Toned Glaze. This vase will work with that Mission Arts and Crafts Style Home. It would look just great sitting on that Stickley Bookcase. This Vase was made Circa 1933.
