Few facts about McCoyPottery:

  2. While McCoy wall pockets are admired for their aesthetic appeal today, they were originally designed with functionality in mind. These pockets were often used to hold flowers or small plants, serving as both decorative elements and practical storage solutions in homes.
  3. While McCoy Pottery is primarily associated with ceramic pieces, they also experimented with other materials for their wall pockets. Some examples include pottery made from clay, stoneware, and even a line of wall pockets crafted from colorful plastic.
  4. McCoy wall pockets have become highly sought-after by collectors in recent years, with rare and unusual designs commanding significant prices at auctions and antique markets. This surge in interest has led to a resurgence of appreciation for McCoy's artistic craftsmanship.
  5. McCoy Pottery was produced in Ohio, particularly in the town of Roseville, which became known as the "Pottery Capital of the World" during the early to mid-20th century. The McCoy brand, along with other pottery manufacturers in the region, played a significant role in shaping the cultural and economic landscape of Ohio and beyond.
