Description

Anna Van Briggle Colorado Springs Elephant Planter - A whimsical celadon-glazed ceramic elephant planter bearing the incised text 'COLO. SPGS.' on its body and signed 'Anna Van Briggle' in script on the unglazed oval base. The piece carries a handwritten label on front identifying the maker, and features the classic mottled teal glaze Van Briggle is celebrated for. A delightful souvenir-era piece from one of Colorado's most storied pottery dynasties, in very good vintage condition with no chips noted.

Pair of Handthrown Studio Pottery Cups - A matched set of two wheel-thrown stoneware cups featuring a striking three-zone glaze treatment: earthy olive green at the base, a rich cobalt blue mid-band, and a smooth teal interior. Both pieces bear an identical maker's mark on the unglazed base that appears to read 'B' with an arrow or similar studio cipher, consistent with a working studio potter's personal mark. The cups are nearly identical in size and form, suggesting they were thrown in the same session, and display the satisfying heft and honest craftsmanship of serious studio work.
