I have a vase that I believe is a Weller Woodcaft Vase. How do I know it is a Weller for sure (what markings should I look for), and how do I best determine an estimate of value?

I forgot to mention.... I have pictures, but wasn't sure how to post them with this posting. Let me know if you are interested in seeing them.

We LIVE for pictures!! Please post some and the pottery people will be able to help.

Here is the first picture

How do I know this is a Weller Woodcraft Vase? I don't see any markings,

Pottery is not my expertise and I do believe this is a great example of Weller Woodcraft. Not all pottery is signed. I always look at the design and craftsmanship and then confirm with signature. This is a great vase.

Re: your Woodcraft Weller vase.

You did not mention size. Weller did one 13" and one 12" both have a 1999 book value of 400.00-500.00 USD which is really only a guide at best.

The pottery market seems to be very soft right now. If you did a search on eBay you might get some sense(at least in that venue)of what one is willing to pay for Woodcraft. Live auctions seem to fetch better prices.

Weller introduced Woodcraft in the 20's. It is a beautiful line. Nice find.
