  • 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.

The ZMA to Go module Zanesville Pottery: Then and Now explores examples of locally made pottery including a utilitarian stoneware jug, hand-painted vases, and slip-cast manufactured pieces from well-known local pottery companies. Each piece tells a different part of the local pottery industry story and demonstrates the evolution of pieces created in relation to local materials, demand, the American Arts and Crafts Movement, and current events. Module Objectives At the conclusion of the ZMA to Go module Zanesville Pottery: Then and Now, students will be able to: 1. Define the word utilitarian. 2.

  • The Flowering of American Art Pottery
    Earth into Art The FLowering of American Art Pottery OBJECT GUIDE I. 1876 CENTENNIAL InTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION In the late nineteenth century, American-made art pottery was internationally recognized for its innovation, quality, and beauty. The story of this distinctly American artistic achievement began with the 1876 Centennial International Exhibition in Philadelphia, which celebrated the one hundredth anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Mary Louise McLaughlin (1847–1939) and Maria Longworth Nichols (1849–1932)—accomplished china painters in Cincinnati who would become central figures in establishing the American Art Pottery industry—exhibited in the Women’s Pavilion, but it was what they saw in other buildings that would propel their careers forward in unimagined ways. European and Asian firms exhibited superior examples of porcelain and earthenware that captivated fairgoers. Meanwhile, Horticulture Hall, with its displays of exotic and native plants, riveted attention on gardening. Skillfully rendered botanicals would be important subjects in decorating American Art Pottery. 1) Top to bottom: In case: “Japanese Pottery” and Visitors Guide to the “Haviland Faience,” 1876 Centennial Exhibition Published Harper’s Weekly, Philadelphia, 1876 November 25, 1876 Publisher: J.B.
