Description |
Meric Art Studios (1928-1939), formerly West End Pottery, was established in 1928 in East Liverpool, Ohio. The company produced a wide variety of wares inspired by historical pieces and they were often used by jewelry stores and florists for interior decorating. Although only in business a short time, in 1933, East Liverpool's newspaper, "The Evening Review" touted Meric Art Studios as "the largest art ware manufacturers in the East Liverpool district." Art Deco (French Style) 2 "Wing" Vase, brown and black marbled glaze Vase is not even on the base, so the vase does not stand up straight. |
