McCoy Quilted Jardiniere Cache Pot, Midcentury
This item is currently pick-up only.
This McCoy cache pot (c. 1954) has a 9” wide opening, making it a pot large enough to hold your 8” growers’ pots. The quilted texture and leafy rim make this piece truly Midcentury in style.
Kitschy and colorful, there’s something so stylish about Midcentury pieces. I am a big believer in curating shelf style. Find a piece that catches your eye and give it new life!
A note about the pottery…
Nelson McCoy Pottery has its roots as a pottery company beginning in 1910, but its true rise to fame didn’t happen until 1933 when the company started to turn its attention to manufacturing decorative pieces. They were one of the first pottery companies to stamp their pottery with a brand! Not every McCoy pottery peice has a branded stamp (especially the pieces older than 1933), but many do! If you’re a nerd about antiques and vintage items like me, read more about McCoy pottery at the McCoy Pottery Collectors’ Society website.
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, but water and extreme temperatures can accelerate wear. Rather than planting directly into your vintage cache pots and planters, I recommend using a protective plastic saucer inside your pieces to protect the glazing, dropping the grower pot straight into the saucer. Display them in a climate-controlled area. Keep in mind that all purchases on my website are final sale. If you have questions about piece quality, send them here!
