You are bidding on my Beautiful Etruscan Majolica Shell and Seaweed Large Footed Bowl. Marked with the Griffin, Hill & Smith Backstamp c. 1879-1889. This wonderful footed bowl is decorated in pink and green with a scalloped edge. Measures 8.25" diameter by 4.25" high. This footed bowl is in good condition but does have small chips around the top edge. (please see pictures) Fine crazing is present which, is commonly found on these pieces. The footed bowl has 7 large seashells with seaweed between and the foot is decorated with 18 shells. A very nice bowl. Please see my listings for additional majolica pieces. Good Luck Bidding.
The Griffen, Smith and Hill pottery of Phoenixville, Pennsylvania produced some of the most collectible American majolica from 1879 to 1892 . Their designs were borrowed from nature using flowers, ferns, cauliflower, butterflies, sea shells, corn, begonia, maple, oak leaves, etc. Their Shell and Seaweed pattern was produced in a full line of dinner, coffee, and tea service brought the pottery high recognition. Other well-known patterns such as Bamboo and Cauliflower also were manufactured in a complete line. Most pieces are marked with one of the two versions of their crest. However, some unmarked pottery can also be attributed to Griffen, Smith and Hill.
