~~#2536 - McCOY POTTERY -- TRIPLE CALLA LILY VASE (WHITE)~~ SOLD

SUPER MCCOY TRIPLE LILY VASE! THIS ONE IS WHITE WITH A SEMI-MATTE GLAZE. MARKED ON BOTTOM: MCCOY, USA. IN EXCELLENT CONDITION -- ONLY EVIDENCE OF "USE" IS A TINY (1/16") GLAZE DING ON THE RIM OF A LILY -- OF ABSOLUTELY NO CONSEQUENCE! HAS TYPICAL MCCOY GLAZE/COLOR DRIPS AND NON-COLOR/GLAZE PLACES -- THEY ARE PRODUCTION AND ARE NOT DETRIMENTAL IN ANY WAY. THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL VASE AND A WONDERFUL ADDITION TO A COLLECTION!

#2413 - McCOY POTTERY -- TRIPLE CALLA LILY VASE (WHITE) - $100.00

BEAUTIFUL MCCOY FLOWER FORM VASE -- THIS IS THE WHITE TRIPLE CALLA LILY! COLORS AND MOLD DETAIL ARE EXCELLENT. ALWAYS PAMPERED -- VASE HAS MINOR GLAZE CRAZING (NOT UNUSUAL ON THIS COLOR AND SHINY GLAZE), HAS NO CRACKS -- THE ONLY "USE" EVIDENCE I COULD FIND IS A TINY 1/16" (DOT SIZE) DING ON RIM EDGE OF A LILY. IT'S SO SMALL THAT I USED A MAGNIFYING GLASS TO SEE IF IT WAS PRODUCTION OR A DING AND THEN COULD ONLY BE CERTAIN BECAUSE IT DOESN'T HAVE CLEAR OVERGLAZE! NOT DETRIMENTAL IN ANY WAY TO THIS EXTRA NICE VASE.

#2146 - McCOY POTTERY -- LILY BUD LINE PLANTER - $75.00

BEAUTIFUL MCCOY PLANTER FROM THE DIFFICULT TO FIND LILY BUD LINE OF 1941! BECAUSE OF ITS SHAPE, THIS ONE IS CALLED THE "HEART" PLANTING DISH AND IS PASTEL AQUA COLOR WITH SEMI-MATTE GLAZE. MARKED ON BOTTOM WITH OVERLAPPING NM AND USA. WONDERFUL CONDITION -- HAS A COUPLE SLIGHTLY DARKENED CRAZE MARKS ON BOTTOM, A 1/16" DOT SIZE DING ON RIM, AND AN OLD, SUPER TIGHT 1/2" HAIRLINE AT ONE LEAF--OF NO CONSEQUENCE! THIS IS A VERY DIFFICULT TO FIND ITEM AND IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION FOR ITS AGE! HAS ALWAYS BEEN PAMPERED AND APPEARS TO HAVE NEVER BEEN USED AS A PLANTER. SUPER!

#2106 - McCOY POTTERY -- SINGLE LILY VASE (WHITE) - $85.00

MADE IN 1947, THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL MCCOY SINGLE LILY VASE! LILY IS MATTE WHITE, LEAVES ARE SHADES OF GREEN WITH BROWN ACCENTS, BASE IS A LIGHT TAN COLOR. MARKED ON BOTTOM: MCCOY. IT'S IN GREAT CONDITION -- HAS MINOR CRAZING AND SOME GLAZE DINGS ON BACK RIM EDGE. I'M CALLING THEM GLAZE DINGS EVEN THOUGH THERE IS ONE ON FRONT RIM EDGE THAT RECEIVED COLOR AND GLAZE. WHETHER PRODUCTION OR FROM USE, DUE TO COLOR OF VASE THEY ARE NOT VISUALLY DETRACTING BUT THEY CAN BE FELT. THERE IS A BRUISE ON THE LILY BUD (LOWER PART OF VASE) THAT IS A STRESS -- GLAZE HAS NOT COME OFF AND IS NOT LOOSE. BOTTOM OF ONE LEAF EDGE FEELS A LITTLE ROUGH -- IT DOESN'T HAVE COLOR OR GLAZE BUT I DO NOT BELIEVE IT HAS BEEN BUMPED -- IT LOOKS PRODUCTION. VASE HAS A COUPLE RUST SPOTS ON INSIDE. SOUNDS AWFUL DOESN'T IT? PLEASE DO NOT BE DETERRED BY MY DESCRIPTION! THIS IS A VERY NICE VASE, VERY PRETTY. HOWEVER, IT IS JUST A LITTLE LESS THAN PERFECT AND I HAVE PRICED TO REFLECT THESE IMPERFECTIONS. BEAUTIFUL ITEM!

#2091 - McCOY POTTERY -- CHRYSANTHEMUM VASE (LILAC COLOR) - $175.00

ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL FLOWER FORM VASE! THIS IS THE CHRYSANTHEMUM -- THE BLOOMS ARE WHITE WITH LILAC COLOR ACCENTING -- UNUSUAL! THE COLORS ARE SOFT, NOT BRIGHT LIKE THE YELLOW MUM VASE. MARKED ON BOTTOM: MCCOY. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO EVIDENCE OF USE. THERE IS A PRODUCTION STRESS ON INSIDE BRIDGE AND A POTTERY "BLISTER" THAT POPPED -- NEITHER ARE OF ANY CONSEQUENCE. ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL VASE!

#2082 - McCOY POTTERY -- PINK HYACINTH VASE - $160.00

ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL MCCOY FLOWER FORM VASE -- THE PINK HYACINTH! EXCEPTIONAL DETAIL -- CAN SEE THE INDIVIDUAL FLOWERS. BEAUTIFUL COLORS -- SHADES OF PINK FLOWERS WITH SEA GREEN LEAVES AND BROWN BASE. MARKED ON BOTTOM: MCCOY. IN GREAT CONDITION -- HAS SOME CRAZING ON BOTTOM, THERE ARE SOME NON-GLAZE/COLOR SPOTS ON LEAVES, AND THE TIP OF ONE BOTTOM LEAF IS NOT POINTED. FROM THE SHAPE AND FEEL, I WOULD SAY IT IS PRODUCTION, NOT FROM USE. HOWEVER, IT MUST HAVE BOTHERED PREVIOUS OWNER BECAUSE THEY COLOR "TOUCHED UP"-- I WASHED AWAY MOST OF IT BECAUSE IT WAS UNNECESSARY. THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL VASE -- DO NOT BE DETERRED BY MY VERY CRITICAL DESCRIPTION. IT'S AN EXCELLENT ADDITION TO ANY MCCOY COLLECTION.

#1825 - McCOY POTTERY -- CHRYSANTHEMUM VASE (LILAC COLOR) - $88.00

MCCOY'S FLOWER FORM VASES ARE SO PRETTY! THIS ONE IS THE CHRYSANTHEMUM AND IS IN THE PRETTY LILAC COLOR. HAS WONDERFUL COLOR, AND WAS EARLY FROM THE MOLD AS DETAILS ARE CRISP AND PRECISE! VASE HAS NO CRACKS OR CRAZING BUT IS NOT WITHOUT PROBLEMS. IT HAS ONE BROKEN LEAF POINT AND HAS SUSTAINED A 3/8" X 3/8" SLICE TYPE CHIP ON FLOWER AT A SIDE MOLD SEAM. PREVIOUS OWNER PUT SOME GREEN COLOR ON THE BROKEN LEAF TIP -- DEBATABLE BUT I WOULD HAVE LEFT IT ALONE. THEN THEY PUT GREEN COLOR ON THE SLICE TYPE CHIP! APPEARS TO BE MARKER, NOT PAINT AND I DON'T KNOW IF IT WILL REMOVE. BOTH OF THESE DAMAGED PLACES COULD BE EASILY REPAIRED OR JUST ENJOYED AS IS. VASE DISPLAYS BEAUTIFULLY AND I REALLY SHOULDN'T BE SO HARD ON THE PRIOR OWNER. VASE LOOKS NEW AND WAS OBVIOUSLY HIGHLY PRIZED, I'M CERTAIN THEY WERE HEART BROKEN WHEN IT WAS DAMAGED. IT'S A BEAUTIFUL ITEM!
