NOTE: The phrases, “USA, Made In USA, California, Calif, Made in Calif, Cal, CA, Made In California, Made In Calif.” may be omitted unless they are an integral part of the pottery name or company’s mark. For instance, “California Originals”.
Variations on marks occur - there are bound to be mistakes. Please let us know if you have major additions or if there are blatant errors. But keep in mind that you may have a mark that just happens to be slightly different.
