Zanesville Stoneage Modern ... in pink?

Submitted by scottlindberg on Wed, 05/28/2008 - 6:34pm.
  • American pottery & dinnerware (production)
  • zanesville stoneage stone age modern ohio

 I've been collecting Zanesville Stoneage Modern for a few years, thanks to a recommendation from Craig McCormick in response to a question I had about affordable modern planters. The line's color palette is one thing that continually surprises me, though. Today when surfing eBay, I came across this planter in pink. While a relatively common shape, I've never seen this glaze before ... and while I've been aware of the existence of an orange treatment, I hadn't heard of pink before today. So far, I have seen or own examples in the following colors:

  • White (opaque)
  • White (foamy, milky & semi-transparent)
  • "Quince" - a tan or buff color
  • "Sandstone" - a foamy Green/Blue/Grey
  • "Golden Poppy" - a matte burnt orange that Zanesville marketing materials call a "silicone-based finish"
  • "Saxony Blue"
  • "Cannon Black"
  • Pink (as of today)

How about you? Any other colors we can add to the list?

ZSC Stoneage Modern colors

Submitted by mccormickstudio on Mon, 07/07/2008 - 5:12pm.

I have seen the pink. I've also seen gloss dark brown, golden yellow matte and pale blue gray. I think the pink was a later color.

Looking on ebay under the search "zsc" I see also cobalt blue.

I think it might be interesting to catalog all of the shapes. I've kept most of my big shapes, but sold many of the cylinders that I once owned.

Shape Catalog

Submitted by scottlindberg on Tue, 07/08/2008 - 12:44pm.

I agree that putting together a catalog of all the Stoneage Modern shapes would be a interesting, albeit exhausting, project. With so many shapes, and each shape being available in so many sizes, the list would be enormous. I nominate you to tackle it, Craig!

Another color

Submitted by scottlindberg on Sun, 07/20/2008 - 2:02pm.

Just yesterday I picked up a Stoneage Modern pot in a color I haven't seen before: a very glossy darkish terracotta. Not orange, not brown, not red, but somewhere in between. It's nice!
