Description
Made by Harker Pottery. The company, located in East Liverpool, Ohio is said to be the one of the oldest, if not the oldest pottery company in the United States, beginning production in 1839. According to Lehner's book on marks, the mark on the bowl was used prior to 1900. I'm estimating this piece to be circa 1895. I've included the page from Lehner's book in the photos. Surprisingly for a child's dish, & adding to that being 100+ years old, the piece is in wonderful condition. There is a small amount of the transfer missing from the band surround the artwork, a some fading in the artwork coloring - but nothing completely gone or altered. Antique 1890S Harker & Co.
