Zanesville Pottery Old Pot Shop Teapot with Creamer and Sugar Bowl circa 1940s CA2119

A lovely glaze, almost a luster look. Teapot is 5 1/2" x 8" x 6" and the sugar and creamer are each 3 1/2" x 5 1/2" 4 1/2". Rich clay deposits in Southeastern Ohio made a perfect base for pottery making by the pioneers. They made practical items for use in home and work from this natural resource. As the industry grew, skilled workers produced dinnerware, crocks, storage jars, and tile. Zanesville Pottery, was formed in 1945 along Route 40 as a small “outlet” store representing the local factories in the area.
