It's really unfortunate that pottery in general has decreased in value. I always look for Roseville and other pottery, I can't help myself. My parents have been in the antiques business since 1969, and I used to go with them everywhere. I remember Roseville, McCoy and so many others. Brings back some good memories. Thanks for this series it has been great.
I never knew anything about Roseville until I broke into a house and saw all this pottery. I then found out it's worth alot of money. I then.... I'm lying. My friend has a collection, a very large collection, an incredibly beautiful collection. I never knew anything about Roseville and now I do. I love it. She has 3 books on it including history. We are both into collecting and antiques and can't get enough. Auctions and estate sales are always fun. For years I worked for a lady at an antiques shop in the Palm Springs, California area. She knew about everything that was in the shop. She was great. I have always liked old stuff even as a kid and have lived in some really old houses. Where the heck is the time machine. Happy trails.
Thanks just found this. I started collecting Roseville in 1985 and haven’t stopped. Prices are down right now so great time to start collecting. Best find recently was a pair of the grandpa sized jardinieres of the Blackberry pattern at an estate sale for $200 for the pair!
Back in the late 90s my ex and I were at a thrift store. He found this little yellow vase, turned it over and low and behold it was a Rookwood. That was back when Ebay was so hot. He sold that little vase we bought for 50 cents for over $500. That along with a Ty Cobb miniture bat and a jadeite green kitchen set of salt, pepper, cinnamon shakers, and grease bowl NIB made enough to put us over the top for the down payment on our house.
Thanks for this. I have always been behind the eight ball and been told many times why would I collect Roseville. I now have a great collection that greets me every day. I love the textures and consider these as art pieces. I am glad some have come on the market so I can have them in my collection. Some of the future and trial glazed make the hunt even more enjoyable. I’m not looking to make money but surround myself with there artistic form. Thanks for the positive video. Dan
Great information on Roseville. Just a tease and not to criticize but you sure like the word "Now". At least it's not "Uh". Which I use way to often. ;-)
Really enjoyed this Roseville video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge! I do wish, however, that you mentioned Robinson Ransbottom Pottery Co. of Roseville, Ohio (R.R.P. co.). Too many times, I've seen pieces marked (and priced as if) Roseville when in fact it was R.R.P. & Co. Thanks again, and keep the videos coming. Hope to visit the shop soon!
I wanted to say more in the videos but also don't want these to be super long so maybe I will come back on roseville down the line and I will definitely bring it up. 🙂
I just bought some of this at auction Saturday in Okemos. I half expected to see you there. I backed out on a leather firefighter helmet in red, I stayed in at 250 it went to an antique shop in williamston I should have stayed in another 100. I had ok luck with this stuff but I overpaid on a chipped pinecone one.
I was in Hastings for their Auction. I'm sure we will cross paths at some point. We have all been down the road of overpaying or not going high enough. Luckily there is always another auction to redeem yourself 🙂
I have a sunflower pattern vase, but it has no mark at all. It looks so real, and in my opinion, if it was a fake, wouldn't it have a fake mark on the bottom, too? i read on a forum somewhere that some of the very earliest pieces had no mark. Is that so?
Hi....love your channel....I learn so much! First question ...the photo you showed of makers mark I’m assuming pic on right is original.....can you clarify for me please? Second question I have a large mixing bowl off white with large blue stripe going around the bowl...very heavy....definitely says Roseville on the bottom...it is a raised mark ( so sorry I don’t have bowl handy at the moment) ....for some reason I remember Roseville Ohio is that something totally different? Thank you again for sharing 😊kim
As a long time collector of Roseville Pottery among other things I'd suggest that a new prospective collector do some research before they jump right in. Pick up a reference book to identify the patterns and see which ones you like, go to eBay to try to get a feel for current values, and then go out treasure hunting and try to handle as much art pottery as you can learning how to spot; cracks, chips, and other damage. It will take a while to learn and you may make some mistakes along the way but every mistake is an opportunity to learn what not to do. Collect what you like personally so that if you don't realize a profit you will still enjoy your collecting journey.
Thank you for sharing , your knowledge is impressive . I don't see the average person collecting these due to the size and weight . Selling on-line would also be difficult because of the excessive shipping charges . Just my opinion .
There are smaller pieces that aren't so heavy and bulky. But I understand your point completely but if they are packed right they can be shipped with ease. Thanks for watching 🙂
I have a question about collecting Roseville. Is it best to try and collect just 1 pattern? I collect Roseville and have 7 pieces all are different patterns. I only buy at a locale auction and only buy excellent condition. I guess what am trying to say, does the value of a collect go up in price if the pieces are all the same pattern line.
Pyrex pastels may be “pretty” but pottery like Roseville is more like a painting - the longer I look the more I like. Tempting as a collection but I’m probably always going to want the fine china. But no fancy teacups & saucers as they seem to fussy.
@@josephwagner3558 I used to attend auctions 90 minutes north of me, and the most expensive items to come up were: Barristers bookcases, anything oak, and mirrors.

Glad you found your way into antiques!! We need more like minded people to preserve the history

Could you talk about Revere ware sometime?
I'll add it to the list
I'm going to start selling mine soon. My granddad bought a bunch for grandma. I inherited all of it from mom. I don't have anyone to pass it to.
Perfect! Finding a good home for them is better then the trash

Getting to the time of year I'll be able to redeem myself a couple times a year, I'll see you out there.

Sounds good see you around 🙂

The one on the right is the legit one. Nope that is a roseville piece if that is what you are asking 🙂
Was Orion pattern introduced in 1910?
1935
Thanks.
“Dr Lori on TH-cam valued a “Sunflower” vase the owner got at Goodwill for $3.00. WOW!
Depends on condition style and size I've seen sunflower vases sell for $200+
Terapeak shows the sunflower pattern ranging from $25 to $1,000 in the past year. Condition definitely decides value.
I HAVE SEEN THESE GROWING UP, BUT I DO NOT HAVE ANY MYSELF 🎈 🎈 🎈 🎈 🎈
No better time then the present to start a collection 😂😉
Worth of a cosmos 358 12 inch's?
Would need to see pics and condition

Great insight Joseph! Thats why we always say memories over money! Collect what you like

I'd say the more you have of one pattern would definitely up the value of you ever sell them. Selling them or collecting as a set is always best
@@66uniqueantiques Thank you for the advice. I know if it was china dishes the more of the same pattern increases value. Just wasn't sure on pottery.
How can you tell if it is fake or counterfeit?
Check the markings on the bottom and compare to a legit piece . If you don't have one use an online image for comparison
Do you buy Roseville ? I can send you photos of ones that have the pedestal . Probably 40 pieces of different styles.
We do but with the market being where it’s at the prices are pretty low. If still interested feel free to send me some pics
Sure, what’s your email.

Couldn't agree more on the art look of Roseville pottery.
I'd be curious how collectors display their pieces. Some of us have smaller homes, already filled with other 'stuff'!
Most use shelves or cabinets that I have seen but it all comes down to the space you have
Very carefully. Personally I really like Barrister Bookcases to store my art pottery but they can be just as or more expensive than the pottery.
Very true Joseph
