That’s a Catalina pottery vase made by Gladding McBean!


When out shopping at a local flea market, I recently ran across this terrific pottery vase that is marked CATALINA POTTERY C-333 MADE IN USA.



The vase has the Calla Lilly pattern on it, and it was made from 1937 to 1942 by the Gladding McBean Company.



When you see the mark on the bottom of the vase, you think it is for CATALINA ISLAND POTTERY made from 1927 to 1933.  A good rule of thumb to use is if it says POTTERY, it’s made by Gladding McBean.





One great thing about this vase is the fact that the top of the vase is not too small so that it doesn’t strangle your favorite flowers.  Not only that, but it would also look wonderful on any table.

You can see this terrific vase in my Etsy store here.  Have you ever run across anything like this?
