Roseville pottery is a type of early American art pottery that primarily dates to the early 20th century. The Roseville Pottery Company produced ceramics in Zanesville, Ohio starting in 1898 and rivaled similar brands like Rookwood and Weller.
Roseville pottery prices vary depending on the rarity and condition of a given piece. For example, a simple Roseville vase could sell anywhere from $60 to $1,500 at auction. Unfortunately, due to Roseville’s popularity, modern-day reproductions bring overall prices down. However, most antique pottery experts can distinguish between new and old pottery (even though it can be challenging for antique newbies).
For the sake of this article, we are going to examine Roseville pottery prices on a pattern-by-pattern basis. Some patterns are worth more than others because they are rarer and more desirable. This knowledge is helpful for collectors because if you can identify the design (and know the value of that pattern), you can spot bargains more easily. Remember, this price guide is not an exhaustive list of every Roseville pattern, but we’ve included ten starter patterns that people search for frequently.
KEY:
$: Inexpensive, between $20 – $150
$$: Moderately priced, between $150 – $300
$$$: Expensive, between $300 – $900
$$$$: High-end, between $900+
NOTE: Remember that certain pieces will always be more expensive and rare (regardless of the pattern). For example, jardinieres tend to be significantly more costly than small vases in the same pattern. Also, a jardiniere in an “inexpensive” pattern range could be worth more than a vase in an “expensive” pattern range.
