More Information


Very nice early redware lidded pot measuring approx. 5" by 6.5" to handle ends. This piece has the appearance of a bean pot and is in very good condition.
 Looks like it was never used. Bright glaze and some normal factory ware on bottom...see photos. Marking on bottom indicates Oxford very early 20th century.

As found via internet research:

"The Oxford Pottery Company, located at Marquand and Burgess Avenues in Cambridge Ohio was founded in 1913. It produced earthenware and utility ware.
In the 1920s A. O. C. Ahrendts acquired most of the stock. In 1934 the company took the name Universal Potteries. It continued to manufacture semi-vitreous dinnerware, kitchenware, and specialty ware.
The company ceased producing these wares in 1954 and turned to tile manufacturing. In 1960, the name was changed to the Oxford Tile Company, Division of Universal Potteries. The plant closed in 1976."

Condition is very good and doesn't appear to have been used. Great gift idea!

Please see photos and ask any questions prior to purchase. Thanks for looking.
