We are Proud to list a very large Collection of ROSEMEADE, UND SCHOOL OF MINES, DICKOTA, and 3 TRIBES pottery.This listing is for a very nice hard to find Dickota Pottery Mottled Blue glaze 5" Vase.
It all started as the Dickinson Fire & Pressed Brick Co. in 1892, and in 1934 became known as the Dickinson Clay Products Co. which used western ND Clay to make both Bricks & Tile
Howard Lewis, a ceramic engineering student from Iowa State Collage and former employee of the Niloak Pottery Company took charge, and brought Charles Grantier aboard from the UND School of Mines WPA Division in 1935, Dickota Pottery was named from the first four letters from the city it was made (DICKinson) and the last 3 letters of the state (North DakOTA). Dickota pottery was made as a source of income for the company during the harsh ND winter months when the company could not produce this main bread & butter, Tiles & Bricks.
Although it was a short lived company, (1934-1937), Dickota Pottery was well liked and very popular with the state citizens and has become a very collectible item because of the limited production.
This is a Nice example of a Dickota Pottery 5" vase in Mottled Blue Matte.
It is approx. 5" tall and " at its widest point. It is not signed, but there is no mistake of who made it with the mottled glaze and tan bottom exclusive to North Dakota Badlands clay.
The only flaw I see is a glaze pop from the manufacture process, no chips or cracks on this nice piece!
