#3296 – MCCOY POTTERY – PINK URN VASE (8 ½) - $68.00

THIS IS A LOVELY MCCOY VASE! IT’S URN STYLE, MEASURES 8 ½” TALL, AND IS A PRETTY PINK COLOR. THE BOTTOM IS MARKED: MCCOY, MADE IN USA. VASE IS IN WONDERFUL CONDITION – IT HAS A COUPLE TYPICAL MCFLAWS – PIN POPS, ETC – NOTHING DETRIMENTAL. ONE OF THE PIN POPS HAS A ¼” DING – THAT’S IT!
 

#3294 – MCCOY POTTERY – FLEUR-DE-LIS VASE (MATTE YELLOW) - $88.00

THIS IS A LOVELY MCCOY VASE – THE FLEUR-DE-LIS VASE. THIS ONE IS IN THE PRETTY PASTEL YELLOW COLOR THAT IS RATHER DIFFICULT TO FIND. VASE MEASURES 9 3/8” TALL (AT TALLEST) AND BOTTOM IS MARKED USA. IT HAS NO CHIPS, NO CRACKS, NO CRAZING – IT IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION! THE TOP OF ONE “HANDLE” HAS A COUPLE PRODUCTION STRESS MARKS – NOT DETRIMENTAL IN ANY WAY.

#3280 – MCCOY POTTERY – 8” BUTTERFLY VASE (MATTE WHITE) - $98.00

THIS LISTING HAS A LOVELY MCCOY VASE FROM THE BUTTERFLY LINE OF 1941! VASE MEASURES 8” TALL AND HAS THE OVERLAPPING NM MARK. THE COLOR IS MATTE WHITE AND THE VASE IN IS WONDERFUL CONDITION WITH NO CHIPS, NO CRACKS. THE INTERIOR HAS MINOR CRAZING THAT HAS SLIGHTLY DISCOLORED (MOSTLY IN BOTTOM) AND THERE IS A FAINT STAIN LINE – THAT’S IT! THIS IS AN EXCELLENT ADDITION TO A COLLECTION!

#3265 – MCCOY POTTERY – RARE ART DECO BLACK VASE (TEMPLE JAR) - $225.00

ALTHOUGH THIS VASE WAS MADE IN THE LATER YEARS OF PRODUCTION (DESIGNER ACCENTS), I WOULD REFER TO IT AS BEING RARE! I SELDOM USE THAT TERM TO DESCRIBE MCCOY PIECES BECAUSE THEY PRODUCED IN SUCH VOLUME BUT FOR REASONS UNKNOWN, ITEMS DECORATED USING THE SAND BLASTING TECHNIQUE ARE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND. THIS PARTICULAR ITEM IS A TEMPLE JAR, MEASURES 12” TALL, AND IS BLACK WITH ART DECO LADY ON FRONT. VASE IS MINT CONDITION AND IS MARKED ON BOTTOM: 485, USA. IT IS A REMARKABLE ITEM AND A TREASURE FOR ANY COLLECTION!

#3261 – MCCOY POTTERY – ARCATURE VASE (YELLOW) - $48.00

MCCOY’S VASES FROM THE 1951 ARCATURE LINE ARE BECOMING DIFFICULT TO FIND! THIS ONE IS 6 ¾” TALL AND IS IN THE PRETTY YELLOW AND GREEN COLOR SCHEME AND THE LITTLE BIRD IS WHITE WITH BLUE ACCENT COLOR. VASE HAS A 1” INTERIOR STRESS – IT’S PRODUCTION. IT HAS CRAZING THAT IS NOT UNUSUAL WITH THIS COLOR. BOTTOM IS MARKED: MCCOY, USA. AS WITH MANY MCCOY ITEMS, THIS ONE HAS SOME MCFLAWS THAT ARE PARTICULARLY INTERESTING! THERE A COUPLE BURGUNDY COLOR DOTS (UNDER THE GLAZE AND NOT DETRACTING) BUT I WONDERED WHY THAT COLOR WAS ON A YELLOW AND GREEN VASE – THEN I SAW THE BURGUNDY COLOR POTTERY CLUNK INSIDE THE BOTTOM. IT MUST HAVE BROKEN OFF A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT MCCOY PIECE, FELL INTO THE ARCATURE VASE, AND WAS FIRED ON! THIS IS NOT ONLY A PRETTY MCCOY VASE BUT IT’S A NEAT CONVERSATION PIECE!

#3249 – MCCOY POTTERY – HEART VASE (WHITE) - $68.00

BEAUTIFUL UNMARKED MCCOY HEART SHAPED VASE! THIS ONE HAS THE TABS AND THE COLOR IS WHITE. IT’S IN WONDERFUL CONDITION – THE ONLY FLAW I COULD FIND IS A SLIGHTLY ROUGH SPOT ON THE UNDERNEATH SIDE OF THE “RIBBON” (ON THE SIDE OF VASE). I HAVE EXAMINED THIS WITH A MAGNIFYING GLASS AND I’M STILL NOT CERTAIN IF IT’S A PROFESSIONALLY REPAIRED CHIP OR A PRODUCTION “BRUISE” ALTHOUGH THERE IS A TINY (1/8”) GLAZE DING THAT HAS BEEN RE-ATTACHED. I BELIEVE THE ROUGH PLACE TO BE A PROFESSIONAL REPAIR (WITH THE 1/8” DING OCCURRING LATER) – THE REPAIR IS EXCELLENT. I DON’T BELIEVE YOU WOULD BE DISAPPOINTED SHOULD YOU PURCHASE THIS VASE BUT IT DOES HAVE AN IMPERFECTION AND IS PRICED ACCORDINGLY.

#3248 – MCCOY POTTERY – BUTTERFLY LINE 6” VASE (WHITE) - $68.00

THIS LISTING HAS A VERY NICE VASE FROM MCCOY’S BUTTERFLY LINE! IT MEASURES 6” TALL AND HAS THE OVERLAPPING NM MARK ON BOTTOM. VASE IS SOMEWHAT UNUSUAL IN THAT IT HAS A SHINY OVERGLAZE – MOST ITEMS FROM THE BUTTERFLY LINE HAVE A MATTE FINISH. THE VASE IS IN WONDERFUL CONDITION WITH NO “USE” EVIDENCE BUT DOES HAVE SOME TYPICAL PRODUCTION FLAWS. THE SIDE MOLD LINES/SEAMS ARE PRONOUNCED AND THE VASE HAS SOME TINY PIN-POPS IN THE GLAZE – NOTHING DETRIMENTAL, JUST TYPICAL MCFLAWS!

#3234 – MCCOY POTTERY – CASCADE BUD VASE (6”) - $28.00

VERY PRETTY BUD VASE FROM MCCOY’S CASCADE LINE OF 1961! IT MEASURES 6” TALL AND HAS THE PURPLE, GREEN, AND WHITE EXTERIOR COLORS WITH WHITE INTERIOR. BOTTOM IS MARKED MCCOY – CAN FEEL IT BUT IS HEAVILY GLAZED AND DIFFICULT TO SEE. VASE IS IN WONDERFUL CONDITION – THERE IS A ¼” MARK AT INSIDE EDGE THAT IS APPARENTLY PRODUCTION. IT CANNOT BE FELT SO IT IS NOT A HAIRLINE AND IT WON’T WASH SO IT’S NOT A MARK FROM ARTIFICIAL FLOWER STEMS. WHATEVER IT IS, IT’S NOT DETRIMENTAL IN ANY WAY – THIS IS A LOVELY ITEM!

#3194 – MCCOY POTTERY – PINK BROCADE BUD VASE (7 ¼”) - $28.00

LOVELY PINK COLOR ON THIS MCCOY BUD VASE! IT’S FROM THE BROCADE LINE OF 1956, AND IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION – LOOKS NEW AND UNUSED! MEASURES 7 ¼” TALL AND BOTTOM IS MARKED: MCCOY, USA. VERY PRETTY!
 

#3191 – MCCOY POTTERY – CASCADE VASE (7 ¾”) - $38.00

THIS VASE FROM MCCOY’S CASCADE LINE OF 1961 HAS LOVELY AND SOMEWHAT UNUSUAL COLORS! IT MEASURES 7 ¾” TALL AND BOTTOM IS MARKED: MCCOY, USA. VASE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH NO CHIPS OR CRACKS – BOTTOM SHOWS REMNANT OF PRICE MARKING ($11.25) – THAT’S IT! VERY NICE.
 

#3190 – MCCOY POTTERY – BIRDS WITH BERRIES VASE (PINK) SOLD

FOR WHATEVER REASON, MCCOY’S PINK COLOR VASES ARE NOT IN ABUNDANT SUPPLY – THIS ONE HAS BEEN A PART OF MY COLLECTION FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS! THIS IS THE BIRD WITH LEAVES AND BERRIES VASE, MEASURES 8 ¼” TALL, AND IS MARKED MCCOY, MADE IN USA. VASE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH NO “USE” EVIDENCE. IT DOES HAVE SOME TYPICAL MCFLAWS – COLOR SKIPS, AN UNDER-GLAZE DARK DOT, AND A FIRED-ON POTTERY CLUNK INSIDE BOTTOM – ALL ARE PRODUCTION AND NOT DETRIMENTAL. VERY NICE ADDITION TO A COLLECTION!

#3185 – MCCOY POTTERY – STONEWARE VASE (WHITE) - $78.00

THIS LISTING HAS AN OUTSTANDING UNMARKED MCCOY STONEWARE VASE! IT MEASURES 6” TALL AND IS WHITE WITH A SEMI-MATTE FINISH. THE CONDITION IS EXCELLENT WITH ABSOLUTELY NO EVIDENCE OF USE – DIFFICULT TO BELIEVE THIS VASE WAS MADE IN 1932!
 

#3114 – MCCOY POTTERY – “GRAPES” VASE (YELLOW WITH BROWN) - $78.00

VERY PRETTY COLORS AND EXCELLENT MOLD DETAIL ON THIS MCCOY GRAPE CLUSTER VASE! MADE IN 1951, THIS IS THE YELLOW WITH BROWN ACCENTS GRAPE VASE AND IT’S IN WONDERFUL CONDITION. VASE HAS VERY MINOR CRAZING, NO CRACKS – THE ONLY EVIDENCE OF “USE” IS A 1/8” GLAZE DING AT BOTTOM BASE – NOT NOTICEABLE, NOT DETRIMENTAL AND COULD BE EASILY COLOR TOUCHED-UP IF YOU CHOOSE. MEASURES 9” TALL, MARKED MCCOY. SUPER!!

#3096 – MCCOY POTTERY – CORNUCOPIA VASE (MATTE WHITE) - $78.00

EXCELLENT CONDITION UNMARKED MCCOY CORNUCOPIA VASE! MADE IN 1932, VASE MEASURES 8” TALL AND IS WHITE WITH MATTE GLAZE. IT HAS IN-MOLD LEAVES AND BERRIES AT BASE. IT’S DIFFICULT TO BELIEVE THE AGE OF THIS VASE BECAUSE IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN PAMPERED – NO CHIPS, NO CRACKS – WOW! THIS IS A SUPER ADDITION TO A MATTE WHITE OR OLDER MCCOY STONEWARE COLLECTION.

#3082 – MCCOY POTTERY – ARCATURE VASE - $68.00

BEAUTIFUL MCCOY VASE FROM THE ARCATURE LINE OF 1951! VASE IS GRAY WITH BURGUNDY COLOR BIRD. MEASURES 6 1/8” LONG, 2 ¾” WIDE, 6 5/8” TALL AND IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH MINOR CRAZING. HAS BEEN USED AS A PLANTER AND HAS A FAINT STAIN LINE. IT ALSO HAS SOME TYPICAL MCCOY GLAZE SKIPS/COLOR RUNS. MARKED ON BOTTOM: MCCOY, USA AND IT HAS 2 INCISED LETTER “I”.

#3052 – MCCOY POTTERY – ROSE MATTE LEAVES AND BERRIES VASE - $275.00

THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL MCCOY VASE IN A MOST DIFFICULT TO FIND COLOR! VASE MEASURES 8” TALL AND ALTHOUGH I WOULD LIST THE COLOR AS LILAC, REFERENCE BOOK SHOWING A REPRINT OF AN ORIGINAL CATALOG PAGE STATES THE COLOR IS CALLED ROSE MATTE. IT HAS PALE GREEN COLOR ON THE LEAVES. VASE HAS ALWAYS BEEN PAMPERED – NO CHIPS, NO CRACKS, MINOR CRAZING – A SIMPLY OUTSTANDING ADDITION TO ANY COLLECTION!

#3039 – MCCOY POTTERY – CORNUCOPIA HAND VASE (AQUA) - $48.00

BEAUTIFUL COLOR AND MOLD DETAIL ON THIS MCCOY HAND VASE! THIS IS THE HAND HOLDING A CORNUCOPIA VASE, IS AQUA COLOR WITH SEMI-MATTE GLAZE, AND IS MARKED WITH OVERLAPPING NM, USA. VASE APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN QUITE PAMPERED -- IT HAS SOME CRAZING AND A ¾” SLICE TYPE CHIP ON BOTTOM DRY (SETTING) RING. IT’S NICE AND CLEAN AND APPEARS TO HAVE ONLY BEEN USED AS A DISPLAY PIECE. HOWEVER, I PURCHASED IT AT A MOVING SALE/AUCTION, AND IT HAS A ½” GLAZE CHIP ON BASE AND A COUPLE TEENY ONES ON FINGERS – THESE ARE GLAZE ONLY, THE POTTERY IS NOT CHIPPED IN ANY WAY. I’VE SEEN GLAZE FLAKE-OFFS LIKE THIS BUT ALWAYS ON JARDINIÈRES OR FLOWER POTS THAT HAVE BEEN IN WATER FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME BUT THAT IS OBVIOUSLY NOT THE CASE WITH THIS HAND VASE. IT’S A LOVELY ITEM, A GREAT ADDITION TO A COLLECTION, AND IS PRICED TO REFLECT IMPERFECTION.

#3037 – MCCOY POTTERY – PAIR OF CHARTREUSE VASES - $90.00

THIS LISTING HAS A PAIR OF UNMARKED MCCOY VASES! BOTH ARE IN THE PRETTY CHARTREUSE COLOR WITH SHINY GLAZE AND MEASURE 8” TALL. NEITHER VASE HAS CHIPS AND BOTH HAVE MINOR CRAZING. ONE VASE HAS 3 SUPER TIGHT (LIKE A PENCIL MARK) HAIRLINES AT RIM – TWO ARE ½”, THE OTHER IS ¾”. THEY ARE NOT DETRIMENTAL AND ARE NOTICEABLE ONLY BECAUSE THEY HAVE DARKENED FROM USE – VASE HAD BEEN USED AS A PLANTER. LOVELY ITEMS AND PRICED TO REFLECT ONE VASE BEING A LITTLE LESS THAN PERFECT.

#3013 – MCCOY POTTERY – 9 1/8” AQUA VASE - $90.00

THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL OLDER UNMARKED MCCOY VASE! MADE IN THE 1940’S, IT MEASURES 9 1/8” TALL AND IS A RICH AQUA COLOR WITH SHINY GLAZE. THIS IS A HEAVY VASE, IS A SOMEWHAT DIFFICULT FIND, AND AS WITH THE OTHER AQUA VASES WE HAVE JUST LISTED, IT’S FROM MY COLLECTION. IT IS NOT MINT CONDITION BUT THE IMPERFECTIONS WEREN’T SERIOUS ENOUGH TO PREVENT MY PURCHASING IT YEARS AGO! IT HAS A ¾” SUPER TIGHT HAIRLINE AT RIM – IT’S FINE AS A PENCIL MARK OR CRAZE MARK. THE DRY (SETTING) RING HAS A SLICE TYPE CHUNK MISSING – SEE PHOTO – AND IT HAS A COUPLE SMALLER ONES. MY GUESS IS THERE WERE ATTACHED POTTERY FLAKES (CLUNKS) THAT PREVENTED THE VASE FROM SETTING LEVEL AND A PRIOR OWNER SHIPPED THEM OFF – REMOVING A LITTLE MORE THAN INTENDED. DO NOT BE DETERRED BY MY DESCRIPTION – THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL VASE, SELDOM FOUND ON THE MARKET.

#2980 – MCCOY POTTERY – VASE WITH “FRUIT” HANDLES - $80.00

PRODUCED IN 1948, THIS IS A DIFFICULT TO FIND MCCOY ITEM – THE 6” URN STYLE VASE WITH “FRUIT” HANDLES! VASE IS A BEAUTIFUL AQUA COLOR WITH SHINY GLAZE AND IS IN WONDERFUL CONDITION WITH VERY MINOR CRAZING AND A PRODUCTION POP ON TOP OF ONE HANDLE (NOT DETRIMENTAL). THE ONLY “USE” EVIDENCE IS THE BOTTOM (DRY) SETTING RING HAS SUSTAINED A 1” SLICE TYPE CHIP THAT PRIOR OWNER VERY NEATLY GLUED BACK INTO PLACE! VASE HAS DEEPLY INCISED MCCOY MARK THAT RECEIVED COLOR IN THE INDENTATIONS OF EACH LETTER – VERY ATTRACTIVE! DON’T MISS THIS VASE – IT’S A TREASURE FOR ANY MCCOY COLLECTION!
