The Longaberger basket people did more than just weave. Their vintage pottery is beautiful and functional.
Most people know Longaberger as the Midwest basket company that dominated 1980s and 1990s picnics, parties and home decor (if you could afford it). But Longaberger Pottery is the gorgeous kitchen and dining collection by the same company. Featuring the same attention to detail, American-based manufacture and lasting quality, this now discontinued pottery has a lot of fans. You can use it as your go-to kitchenware, since it’s dishwasher safe. But if you just want a bit of farmhouse decor, this vintage pottery is a great accent piece. The pitcher works equally well to upscale your morning o.j. or showcase a hallway bouquet.
Vintage dishes make great home decor accents if you’re looking for farmhouse decor ideas
The Longaberger Pottery line are a perfect complement to modern farmhouse decor, even if they’re just for show! They make great gifts for bakers, too. The design and style is classic vintage dishware and was made in the USA, primarily in Ohio. This kind of kitchen pottery is made to last, and it’s hard to find today. It’s also more unique, since it’s not available anymore and it will add some interesting style to your kitchen.
Longaberger collectors know that it also has appreciated in value. Some Longaberger Pottery items are worth much more than their original price now. For example, here is a set of four Longaberger Pottery bowls priced at $160. For even more value, full sets of dishes are highly sought after. So keep this vintage kitchenware in mind if you’re a collector. The great thing about this vintage pottery is that it’s also incredibly functional for modern kitchens: most of it is dishwasher safe, microwave safe and oven safe. (But do check the bottom to confirm!)
