Rustic, Fenton More | ||

Rustic vases are characterized by the evenly spaced hobs around the trunk, without background or additional details. At left is a typical marigold standard vase. These have a 3 to 3 1/4-inch base with normal heights from 6 to 11 inches. Some have tight crimped tops. The middle photo shows the midsize and midsize variant, both with 4 to 4 1/4-inch bases. The variant, on the right, is most easily distinguished by the hobs in each of the nine flames. These are sometimes called Hobnail variants and erroneously attributed to Millersburg--and bring somewhat higher prices when so described. The right photo shows the two versions of the Rustic funeral vase. These have a 5 to 5 1/4-inch base and heights between 17 and 23 inches. The example on the right has a secondary collar base called a band or plunger--which is more desirable. To view an unswung funeral vase and a vase with a penny in the base, click here.

The spittoon on the left (next to a Millersburg Swirled Hobnail spittoon) was made from an amethyst midsize Rustic variant vase. It sold in 2012 for $3,900.
In 2016, a similar Rustic (Hobnail) spittoon with a hairline crack brought $675. It measured 4 1/2 inches tall and was 6 1/2 inches in diameter.
