A Resource for Buyers, Sellers and Collectors of Clewell Pottery
This website is a catalogue raisonné and repository of sales data of Clewell Pottery. Entries are indexed by shape number and can also be browsed page by page (40 entries per page). In searching for a shape, it is recommended that the suffix be omitted, as Clewell often assigned different suffixes to the same shape. (See History.) The site is provided as a free public service to collectors.
Users are invited to contribute by submitting information about their own Clewell pieces. To submit a listing, click on “Submit an Item” above and provide the requested information and photos. Admin will review your submission and when approved it will become part of the database. Entries shall remain anonymous.
Users’ email addresses are requested for submissions and questions in order for us to respond, they are not shared for advertising, tracking, or any other purpose, with one exception: if you want to sell an item, simply state “For Sale” in the Comments field, and Admin will be happy to pass along the email address of anyone who expresses interest. The rest of course is up to you.
The goal of this database is to list examples of all the Clewell shapes; however completeness depends on the voluntary participation of collectors and can be achieved only over time. (Website created November 2022.)
Prices shown herein reflect reported sale price or hammer price plus premium. Stated dimensions are approximate and unverified. Where different buyer’s premium percentages are available on different bidding platforms, the lowest percentage is used. Where a price is described as “allocated,” the piece was one of multiple pieces in a single lot and the price of the lot was allocated using Admin’s best judgment.
