Description

Blaisdell Pottery Lidded Casserole & Serving Dish — Hand-Carved Stoneware, Signed

This two-piece lidded stoneware set by Blaisdell Pottery showcases the distinctive craftsmanship of this renowned family of American studio potters. Including a medium-sized covered serving dish and a larger handled casserole, both pieces are hand-thrown and carved in a flowing, organic scroll motif around the body. They are finished in a rich brown glaze accented by earthy green undertones, giving them a warm, rustic appeal.

The forms are both functional and sculptural—hallmarks of Blaisdell's philosophy to create everyday pottery that is as beautiful as it is usable. Signed “Blaisdell” on the underside, these pieces likely come from the workshop of Vicki and Jack Blaisdell of Durango, Colorado, who have carried on a celebrated pottery tradition for over 30 years.

Perfect for collectors or for practical use in a rustic or artisan kitchen, this set embodies the enduring charm of handcrafted studio ceramics.


Condition:

In good condition overall, with typical surface wear from prior use. The glaze retains its rich tone and sheen. A subtle 1" chip is present, as shown in the final photo, but does not affect functionality. No visible cracks or structural damage.


Dimensions:

  • Smaller Dish (with Lid): 4 1/2" H x 6" W x 6" D

  • Larger Casserole (with Lid & Handles): 6" H x 11" W x 9 1/2" D
