ANTIQUE 1930 CALENDER CERAMIC PLATE - PARROT IMAGE - HARKER POTTERY COMPANY

Description

Today we are featuring a Vintage 1930 Calendar Plate manufactured by The Harker Pottery Company* in late 1929. The plate is ceramic and measures 9” in diameter. Plate is marked Harker 1840 on the bottom of the plate. Item features the 12 month calendar around the outer edge of the plate in three month sections to all four corners of the plate surface. The plate is also decorated with a lovely parrot resting on a tree branch. The parrot’s image and color has faded a bit. We are uncertain if this lovely bird is painted or a transfer. Have a look at our photos and see if you can tell. Regardless, it makes a very nice feature to the plate’s character. It is obviously a very old plate and shows age, wear and crazing. But again, it has character and a classic patina. Please have a look at our photos for a closer inspection of this classic item.
*Harker Pottery Company of East Liverpool, Ohio, was incorporated in 1890 in East Liverpool, Ohio. The Harker family had been making pottery in the area since 1840. The company made many types of pottery but by the Civil War was making quantities of yellowware from native clays. It also made Rockingham-type brown-glazed pottery and whiteware. The plant was moved to Chester, West Virginia, in 1931. Harker made serving pieces of the Autumn Leaf line made famous by Hall China Company and produced dinnerware designed by Russel Wright. Dinnerwares were made and sold nationally. In 1971 the company was sold to Jeannette Glass Company and all operations ceased in 1972.
