Was digging at one of my spots today and unearthed this big blue ceramic marble. It is 1.25 inches in size, and is the largest clay marble I have ever found.
These big salt-glazed clay marbles were made in Imperial Germany by the millions starting in the 1870's. They came in several colors...
Ceramic Object seems to be hollow in the middle, very curious what it's purpose is.
Both found in a site that was the old city dump from somewhere around ~1880s-1940's maybe.
Just as I was walking in 2 feet of water along the river to go home...I look down and saw what I believed to be a rubber bumper or plug Stuck in some weedy water. I was going to pass it up but something made me pick it up.
I plucked It out of the muck, flipped it over and did a double take on...
I have a tendency, whenever in a Goodwill store, to walk out with just about anything I see that has crazing. And apparently, I don't have to even know what it is. I'm a sucker for old stuff.
Like with this piece of pottery here. Not only don't I know whether its ceramic or something else, or...
Hello,
I recently identified a site in Central Brazil with hundreds (more probably thousands) of ceramic shards of the most varied pottery and manufacturing styles. Below (attached) are some photos (macro - 23 x 23 square cm) and light microscope details (micro - some few square mm) with temper...
I'm helping my mother clear out some of her collectibles and I am looking for anyone who may have information about the value of this W.T. Copeland & Sons pitcher. From the research I've done, it was made in London somewhere around 1860-1890.
The store was a couple miles from Lewes, Delaware. They are in a shadowbox sort-of frame. Think there's any chance these are legitimate? How would this family have gathered them?
Hey T"netters- any ideas as to age? 1809 half cent (not toasted for sure!) plus a large cent (no pic, Mick dug), Pottery is especially interesting to me. And this must be a privy, correct?? 2nd pic has the 5 ft probe buried to the hilt (cleared the leaves around the depressed approx 3-4 ft...
I was walking my dog today when I found this partially sticking out of the ground. I dug around a little and exposed more of it. It looks like some type of ceramic dish, but I have no idea what it really is. I would like to know more about it. The land I live on was used to travel from the...
Anyone have any info on this little piece I found while beach combing? I realize it's tiny, but I'm hoping the print/design is unique enough to shed some light on where it might have been made and the age :)

Hi! I found this in San Francisco. I was curious what it is and if it is work anything. It is about 4" x 4" and the material feels like ceramic.
Thank you in advance for the help!
Picked this ceramic vase up thrifting. It has what looks like a thin blue glaze with some green mixed in on the outside and inside. There is a floral pattern engraved with some greek looking trim around the top. I don't have a clue as to what it is or where it originated. Any help is...
Picked this up today thinking it looked alot like some italian majolica pottery I found recently. Measures 9.5"x7" The back is marked by hand with a crown over an R.S Any info would be great! Thanks in advance.
Have two vases that have a mark on the side and hoping someone can tell me about them. They are about 7 or so inches tall and look like they are a combination of metal with glass coating , not sure.
I found these 4 dogs in a yard sale. I have no idea where they are from, When they where made, and what they are worth. If you have any information i can really use it thank you.
Driving Me Crazy! Pottery Mark
I have been driving myself crazy trying to figure out the maker mark of this piece. I am fairly new to collection but have many books about maker marks and whatnot but cannot find it anywhere. It doesn't help that I can't read what it says on the bottom. The...
I recently found this mystery item that I think was a tool or weapon. At first, I thought it was made from wood or bone but I don't think so. :icon_scratch: I think it is ceramic due to the weight. It is smooth and covered with a patina from use. Both ends are smooth and rounded. Dimensions...
Signed up to the forums just to post this (had lurked in the past). I hunt junk stores and thrift shops and estate sales for deals. Do okay sometimes. Picked up something yesterday and have no clue what it is. Will give as much detail as I can.
The piece is in what looks like a custom...
