Shawnee Little Bo Peep Wall Pocket, Midcentury
Kitschy and colorful, there’s something so stylish about Midcentury pieces. The right vase (or wall pocket in this case) adds character to your life that you want to display. Find a piece here that you will keep forever.
This Shawnee wall pocket features Little Bo Peep finding her sheep and would be perfect in a new nursery or girl’s bedroom. It measures 5” tall with a 2” wide opening.
A note about the pottery…
World War II greatly influenced the beginnings of many American manufacturing companies, including Shawnee Pottery Company. Starting in 1937 and operating until 1961 in Zanesville, Ohio, Shawnee Pottery received its name and logo due to the large number of arrowheads found in the area. Most of their products could be found in “five-and-dime” stores back in the day, and Shawnee items have now become quite collectable.
Vintage Finds
Every vintage item that I forage has at least one story to tell. Use your imagination! Because vintage pottery has lived life, there may be minor crazing in the glaze or potential for it in future. Vintage pieces have much life to live yet. Personally, I recommend these as best suited to dried floral designs or display in a climate-controlled area, as water and extreme temperatures can accelerate wear. Keep in mind that all purchases on my website are final sale. If you have questions about piece quality, send them here!
