  • THE VARIETY of Vance and Avon Faience: PART I, the VANCE FAIENCE COMPANY
    Journal of the American Art Pottery Association, v.21 n.2 p.22-26, 2005. © American Art Pottery Association. http://www.aapa.info/Home/tabid/120/Default.aspx http://www.aapa.info/Journal/tabid/56/Default.aspx ISSN: 1098-8920 THE VARIETY OF Vance and Avon Faience: PART I, THE VANCE FAIENCE COMPANY BY JAMES L. MURPHY Seldom has there been a more disparate pair of ceramic Siamese twins than the Vance and Avon Faience companies of tiny Tiltonsville, Ohio, an Ohio River town about eight miles north of Wheeling, West Virginia. Sigafoose puts it more bluntly, if perhaps a little too bluntly: “Most authors of the last 30 years continue to mistakenly refer to the Avon Faience Company as Vance/Avon Faience [although these] were two completely different organizations with different management, different designers and artists, and very different products that are signed with different marks.”1 Owl candlestick, “Good Evening Old Friend, “with embossed bat, man-in-the moon, and stars. 5 ¼ inches high, base impressed with block letter “F”. In terms of product, the work produced by the Vance pottery appears largely to have been the work of a single designer and modeler, Rudolph Lorber (1872-1952), better known for his later work at Zanesville's Weller Pottery, while the product of the Avon company was the result of diverse designers and decorators such as William P. Jervis (1851-1925), Frederick H. Rhead (1880-1942), and Albert L. Cusick (1881-1946). Both endeavors were short-lived, production by the Vance Faience Co. much the shorter, and Vance Faience pottery has been largely dismissed by collectors and historians alike, some pieces even described a bit harshly as being “bloated, molded wares.”2 Two examples of Vance Faience's hound-handled pitcher, made from old Daniel Greatbach molds.

By the turn of the 20th century, prosperity had begun to take hold with the city’s population approaching 20,000. Being the seat of McCracken County, Paducah experienced considerable growth during the 1920s, enough to inspire major local investments.

  • ORIENTAL and EUROPEAN CERAMICS and GLASS
    SECOND DAY’S SALE WEDNESDAY 22nd JANUARY 2014 ORIENTAL AND EUROPEAN CERAMICS AND GLASS Commencing not before 10.00pm Oriental and European Ceramics and Glass will be on view on: Friday 17th January 9.00am to 5.15pm Saturday 18th January 9.00am to 1.00pm Sunday 19th January 2.00pm to 4.00pm Monday 20th January 9.00am to 5.15pm Tuesday 21st January 9.00am to 5.15pm Limited viewing on sale day Enquiries: Andrew Thomas Enquiries: Nic Saintey Tel: 01392 413100 Tel: 01392 413100 Email: [email protected] Email: [email protected] The following fifteen lots of Waterford and Irish glass come by direct descent from the Penrose family. George and his nephew William Penrose, both prominent Quakers and astute businessmen, established the Waterford Glass House in 1783 to take advantage of the dropping of the glass levy, on Irish glass, by the English Parliament. This excise duty which was charged on the weight of the materials used to make the glass remained on English glass, but in order to protect domestic concerns the export of Irish glass to England, not withstanding smuggling, was forbidden. The Penroses ran the Waterford Glass House, initially with John Hill and then latterly with Jonathon Gatchell. George Penrose died in 1796 and Gatchell with partners bought out William Penrose’s interest in 1799. The Waterford Glass House continued under several Gatchell partnerships until it closed in 1851, shortly after exhibiting a suite of banqueting crystal at the Great Exhibition, due to the crushing burden of taxation. William’s daughter Elizabeth Penrose married Anthony Robinson in 1805 at the Friends Meeting House and their daughter Susanna Penrose Robinson who was born in 1816 married Joseph William MacMullen in 1850.

  • Unforgettable Dinnerware
    Unforgettable Dinnerware inaugural exhibition presented by The Dinnerware Museum Ann Arbor, Michigan April 27, 2013 through May 17, 2013 at the Ladies’ Literary Club of Ypsilanti Ypsilanti, Michigan Acknowledgment This exhibition has had a long and notable history. The original concept dates to the late 1990s, when the idea of a museum devoted to international dinnerware was the result of two successful exhibitions that I curated for the ceramics museum in Alfred, New York, where I served as founding director and curator. The exhibits were Lost Molds and Found Dinnerware: Rediscovering Eva Zeisel’s Hallcraft and Glidden Pottery. In my mind, these were two of my favorite exhibits – they were fun, I learned a lot doing my research and I met so many wonderful people along the way. I so enjoyed the great dinnerware designs of Eva Zeisel, Glidden Parker, and Fong Chow and the enthusiasm and knowledge of the collectors. In January 2001, I shared this concept with about twenty-five key designers, artists, collectors, potential financial supporters, and friends. As a test for whether there was any broad interest in a museum devoted to dinnerware, I was hired by Corning, Inc. to curate a special exhibition, that I titled Unforgettable Dinnerware, which was scheduled to open at their Madison Avenue Steuben Gallery location in New York City in May 2002. After September 11th 2001, the exhibition site was closed and the plans for the Dinnerware Museum were explored no further until ten years later. With this history, it should be no surprise, that when the Dinnerware Museum was formally established in Ann Arbor, Michigan in 2012, the inaugural exhibition would be titled Unforgettable Dinnerware.
