MacKenzie-Childs Ceramic berry bowl Fluted in Rose Cottage
This beautiful handmade small berry bowl is a piece of history from the MacKenzie-Childs era when Victoria and Richard MacKenzie-Childs owned and designed at the factory in Aurora up until 2001. Currently, this pattern and shape is not in production and has been retired for some time, so this piece is collectible.
The small bowl is 6″ diameter
Has old, square VRMC logo stamped on bottom with date 1988. Has old potters stamp next to logo on bottom and painters mark of gray dot on bottom near base.
These small bowls sold as berry bowls, ice cream bowls, even as a soap dish for small soaps.
The pattern, Rose Cottage was where the MacKenzie-Childs family lived in Devonshire, is tucked within an old stone wall which opens up to a formal rose garden with a pet tortoise named Rose. From The Story Behind The Patterns. Rose Cottage was part of the Taylor Series.
Bowl is in nice vintage condition- just a tiny pinhole -part of nuance of Majolica clay
MacKenzie-Childs factory sits upon the Cayuga Lake, one of the Finger Lakes in Upstate NY that spans 50 miles long.
ALL of my M-C items unless stated otherwise, were hand-painted and made from the period when Victoria and Richard were owners and worked at the factory in Aurora, NY.
