This charming vintage John B. Taylor studio pottery bowl and plate set features a beautifully hand-painted grape motif in rich cobalt blue with soft green and warm brown accents on a creamy stoneware ground. The expressive brushwork and earthy glaze tones are hallmarks of American studio pottery from the late 1960s–1970s.
Both pieces were handmade in Kentucky and bear the Louisville Stoneware mark, with John B. Taylor’s signature present, confirming authenticity and origin. The bowl nests perfectly on the plate, making this a versatile set ideal for serving berries, desserts, or small snacks, or for display in a curated vintage kitchen or pottery collection.
Each piece reflects the subtle variations and character that collectors appreciate in hand-thrown studio ceramics.
