The Cherub Cameo collection has often been attributed to the Roseville pottery, but there are some collectors believe the pattern of Weller and Owens was. It is a beautiful line with a matte color and gold leaf fern base, which extend upward. White columns provide symmetry and the faces Angels are raised by white circles in the set pieces. The result is an elegant collection that is strong on its own or as part of the Roseville line. There are umbrella stand, Window boxes, Jardinieres, fern dishes and other various shaped shells. Depending on the size and condition of the pieces from the Cherub Cameo range of $ 100 to $ 1500 upwards.
In Mark Bassett's book Understanding Roseville Art Pottery He outlines the reasons for belonging to the cherub pattern Roseville. Many of the forms found in this line, and especially the gate, were only of Roseville Pottery created at this time. In addition, the clay bodies and glazes are very similar to that used in Roseville Donatello and Ivory color. The problem with the Cherub Cameo Ceramics Line is the lack or inconsistency of marks.
Cherub pieces are shown with a factory form number (584) die impressed on the bottom Jardinieres of different sizes. However, Roseville historically the numbers presented for the size of Jardiniere immediately following the form. For some reason, all marked Cherub pieces have been found with the size of notation in the form number. To further contribute to the debate, it is interesting to note that sometimes Owens Pottery marked its ceramics with the size below the form number. However, Owens form numbers and sizes in italics seen in contrast to the markings on cherub.
At this point, we are firmly in the camp that produced the cherub pattern of Roseville Pottery believes. However, if you're like me, you may discover you are more interested in adds this remarkable collection for the beauty it takes for each collection or as a stand-alone, which made it. The Green and Gold are just remarkable how they made play the other and putting centered in the circles for a unique look to add this line of pottery. And even that makes the mystery behind their Creator for large-table and only adds to their appeal.
