Cantaloupe, What is this?
« on: August 27, 2008, 08:31:01 PM »
Hi, have this little Cantaloupe bowl that is attached to a base.  No markings.  About 7 inches long, 2,5 inches high.  Funky colors, and Unknown???

Now while I was just trying to research the other post (unknown USA pottery http://www.yobunny.com/pottery/index.php?topic=10664.msg29048;topicseen#new) 

I stumbled upon these on ebay (Holt Howard Cantaloupe - Click Here ), as the outer design is similar on the Cantaloupe.

 So I wonder IF this might be Holt Howard but in another bowl style ???  ???

My guess (and it is only a guess, Rose!) is that they are not made by the same maker as yours. I'd suspect someone either copying a popular design or independently creating it. Either way they are interesting and I've never seen their like over here.

lol...  :)

I not sure either, since I could find no markings on mine - but the shell design of the cantaloupes is the first time I finally found a body texture similar...

Just so different, and unique.

Mine too was a *wild guess*....just that the body texture was so similar... :-\  Just have to keep trying here.
