Congrats! Nice to hear it's going into everyday use-- we could all use a little more beauty in our lives
FYI for everyone on finding Roseville at too-good-to-be-true prices, tho:
In the 80s the US market was
flooded with cheap Chinese knock-offs of many Roseville pieces. They were cast from original pieces and the glazes were so good they've even fooled some appraisers! About the only way to tell they're fakes is that the colors hand-painted onto the raised areas like flower petals are sloppily applied and appear 'off' by a bit (due to quick & dirty production methods)- something the original Roseville Pottery would never have allowed to market.
Nothing wrong with a knock-off copy for personal enjoyment, but attempting to sell as the real thing could be disastrous to a seller's reputation and could even result in being banned from eBay!
