Matte Green Arts and Crafts Pottery Jardiniere
In my dreams are beautiful wood paneled rooms filled wth nothing but books and plants potted in matte green jardinieres like this one! What could be better?! I think I'd plant this one with a mock orange or little lemon tree, whose white buds then bright fruit would make the green seem all the richer. So pretty. I am not 100% certain the maker of this piece; I have seen very similar described as Roseville, Weller, and also Zanesville. The shape of the feet and underside make me think Weller, but I am not expert. In any event, the glaze is lush, the form super elegant, and the condition very good; there is wear and staining to the interior, but no chips, cracks, or scrapes that I can see. Some irregularity to the glazing, original to the piece. 7 3/4" widest diameter, 7 3/4" across at lip; 6" tall.
