Vintage Hull Potters Brown Drip Glazed Nested Bowls

This pair of nested ceramic bowls features the iconic 'Brown Drip' glaze, a quintessential aesthetic of Mid-Century American pottery. The bowls are characterized by a deep, high-gloss chocolate brown body that transitions into a creamy, foamy tan or oatmeal-colored rim. This effect was achieved through a reactive glazing process where the lighter glaze drips down over the dark base during firing. Based on the silhouette and glaze pattern, these are likely produced by Hull Pottery or a similar manufacturer like McCoy or Pfaltzgraff, dating from the late 1960s to the 1970s. The bowls are thick-walled stoneware, designed for durability and kitchen utility. The larger bottom bowl and smaller top bowl show a rounded profile with a gentle taper toward the base. Regarding condition, the glaze retains a high luster, but there are visible signs of wear consistent with age and use. Small chips are evident along the rims where the lighter glaze meets the brown, particularly on the lower bowl, and minor surface scratches or 'utensil marks' are likely present upon closer inspection. No major cracks or structural repairs are visible in the current view. The craftsmanship reflects mass-produced but high-quality kiln-fired stoneware from the American industrial pottery era.
