I started collecting ceramics about 14 years ago. Does anyone else here? I’d love to see it!

Here are a few of my favorites:

I don’t collect, but your items are beautiful! A pleasure to look at! Very nice collection!
 
Beautiful pieces...I love the first bowl and the pieces that look like they are made out of shells/coral/barnacles. So pretty.

I dont collect but here are a few pieces I have...teal treasure.jpg teal treasure 2.jpg

Love the glazes on the first two! And it looks like you have quite the budding ceramicist.

I do, as a matter of fact - one orange tabby who has the run of the place. Luckily for me, she's not much of a jumper so I'm able to keep some things out of her reach. The rest live safely in a cabinet and come out when we have company.
 
I love ceramics and glassware - I think I get it from my mum lol

I found this website the other day - some nice pieces but also some nice prices!!

Wow, there are some stunning works at astronomical prices! Fun to look at though, thank you!
 
Beautiful.
Yes, I’m a collector of many things including ceramics.
My pride and joy is my Fairyland Lustre collection.
Wedgwood circa 1915- 1920s painted by the designer Daisy Makeig Jones. Pieces are eye wateringly expensive and you may call 2 pieces a collection ha ha.
This collection has taken 25 years to acquire.
Hand painted both inside and out and incredibly beautiful.

Those are stunning!
 
I'm not a collector per se, I just have a few pieces my parents made. My grandmother did these, my grandfather was the man who did lots of noods...lol can't show those.

More pieces of this set are put away in a cabinet, but this is what I put out in my office As a little kid I remember my grandmother making these as well as other things that she would sell. I remember she made Nixon mugs which used to scare me half to death...lol She had a little hut in the back of the house where she would make everything (I called it the hut...lol) She made lots of them, well before I was even born. I don't know all the story but even when my mom was a kid my grandmother was firing. I think thats pretty cool!! This set has another shaker and 6 corn on the cob holders. The other shaker was put away as its quite fragile, and I didn't want to risk having it out. She also used to make corn on the cob pitchers, plates, mugs, you name it.

My sister has a mugs and pitcher set...yes of corn...lol

I only got a few pieces, most was dispersed through the family after my grandmother passed.
 
I don’t collect ceramics but I collect vintage dishes. One of my favorites is Wedgewood Corinthian Blue from the 50’s.

How lovely that you have something fun to remember your grandma by. I think a Nixon mug would scare me too!

Thank you! I love your collection. I recall the story behind your wall of plates as well. At least it looks fantastic!

As long as you don’t fill up that wall and need a second wall (or husband)... :lol:
 
I have a hodge podge collection of ceramic pieces that I love. I have too many to photograph! There is much more scattered around the house.
I found them all at yard sales and estate sales.

The first platter is really special. It is Chinese export ware about c.1850

And here are some Japanese, Dutch, English pieces

Here are some McCoy, Redwing and Van Briggle

And my crowded cabinet with English transferware and Wedgwood Jasperware. I also have some Belleek, but it's not seen here.

Love the cake plates and the Wedgwood, @MamaBee!
I want to take all the plates down and look at the backstamps!

@stracci2000 when I get back to Pa I hope you can look at a little piece to see if you know how old it is.

OK! I love to research the pieces!
Some of the English potters had backstamps that are easy to decipher, and others are more mysterious. It's so much fun to find out what you have and how old it is.

Art pottery is hard to find. I'm always looking! If only I could find Grueby, Teco, Weller, Rookwood, Newcomb..........
