Footbath in the Canova pattern in brown, maker unknown. Named for Antonio Canova (1757-1822), a famed Venetian neoclassical sculptor, the patten was produced by a number of potteries in pink, black, blue, brown, green, purple, and combinations of two colors. Popular in the American market, potteries who made it include Thomas Mayer, G. Phillips, Goodwins & Harris, and possibly others as many pieces are unmarked. Many examples can be found in the TCC Database of Patterns and Sources.
Rich with content for ceramic collectors, researchers, authors, curators, and historic archaeologists, the sites are sure to deliver value for their visitors.
