Description: A bit of history, in the spring of 2021, Jim Waddle and his staff at the former Hall China Company in East Liverpool, Ohio undertook the task of recovering pottery throughout the plant. They collected, cleaned, and sorted hundreds of pieces of wares in the mold shop, decal room, and other storage areas. The majority of the pieces were ultimately placed in what used to be the retail outlet, The Hall Closet. The collection, spanned over one hundred years of production. Some pieces were standard, while many others were experimental, including shapes with trial glazes and decorations, many of which are unique and potentially undocumented. Now is your chance to own a piece of that history and since some of the pieces are experimental, they are often one-of-a-kind, making them even more special. Up for your consideration is this vintage prototype set of Longaberger Pottery nesting bowls, from the Hall China Company Collection. This was a test finish and color for the Longaberger Pottery line. The glaze was never produced. The largest bowl measures 5 1/4 inches in height and 10 1/8 inches across, the medium bowl measures 4 1/4" in height and 8 1/8" across, and the small bowl measures 3 1/4" in height and 6 3/8" across. No chips or cracks. Since these were prototype pieces, they may not be perfect and may have glaze imperfections. One of a kind items. Longaberger items may be prototypes from the Hall Factory and do not always display the Longaberger marks. They may show imperfections and glaze skips. Please visit the photos. The last 2 photos are of the items from the Hall Factory before they were moved and sold. Thank you for visiting. This is a fun retirement gig for us.
