Unlike almost every major auction house in the country, we handle our own shipping in-house. We understand how frustrating it can be to have to work with third-party shippers to have your objects delivered to you. Meanwhile, we also understand how important it is for you to receive your objects safely. We have over 40 years of experience safely packing antique ceramics. By default your invoice will include a shipping total via UPS Ground; you can also, of course, pick up objects at our gallery. Please feel free to contact us if you would like a quote. (A very few lots will have notes at the end of their descriptions letting you know that the object is too big or fragile for us to handle shipping ourselves.)

Scarce Alkaline-Glazed Stoneware Figure of a Rooster, Signed "E.M.," Edwin Meaders, Cleveland, GA, circa 1970, wheel-thrown and hand-modeled figure of a rooster with applied, cobalt-highlighted eyes and saw-toothed details to comb and tail, the surface covered in a mottled green alkaline glaze. Underside incised "E.M." This rooster was produced very early in Meaders' career and is modeled after the work of his mother, Arie, in its forward-facing stance, glaze, and initialed signature. Examples from this time period are typica;y smaller and significantly rarer than those from the late 1980s through the 1990s, when they were produced on a much larger scale. Some professional restoration to comb and beak. H 13 3/4".
