Van Briggle pottery was started in Colorado Springs, Colorado, by Artus Van Briggle in 1901. Van Briggle studied and worked at Rookwood Pottery in Cincinnati starting in 1887, as well as in Paris under Rookwood’s sponsorship from 1893 – 1896. It was in Paris, seeing the Chinese Ming dynasty matte glazes and Art Nouveau designs that inspired his work.

He died in 1904 and his wife took over the company until it was sold in 1912. The company was renamed the Van Briggle Pottery and Tile Company in 1910 and later the Van Briggle Art Pottery Company in 1931. The company is still operational today.
The most collectible and valuable Van Briggle pottery pieces are the ones made when Van Briggle ran the company. The ones produced by his wife are also highly sought after.

I have lots of beautiful van wriggle pieces and some unusual if any one is intresyed
I have a pale pink Van Briggle vase with A within square marking and Colo. Spas marking on bottom. It is 8 1/2″ tall and is wider at bottom that slims at middle and flares a little up to top. It would hold maybe 2 long stemmed flowers.
I am wondering if you could give me an idea of it’s worth.
Thank you.
Some numbered origenol collected socity

I have a black Owl glazed that I purchased in the 60’s/ Can you give me information on that piece. It is signed. I also had a black vase that had an original shade with butterflies. It is now in the hands of a relative. I still love the owl, just curious if they have any value. Thank you, Marilynn Sustala PS. I bought at the Van Briggle warehouse in Colorado Springs.
Hello, I was hoping to find the value on this Van Briggle vase I’ve recently found. Would gladly send a picture.
I have a Van Briggle ‘Lorelei Vase’. Looking at the bottoms of ones posted here for sale, I see none like mine where on the bottom of the vase there is only the familiar symbol, Van Briggle Colo. Sprgs. ~~~~ why does my vase not have any of the letters & other things I’ve seen on the bottoms? Mine was an Estate Sale Purchase. Thank you. Kathleen Smith ~ I am considering selling it.
I have various pieces of Wine and the blue-green VB.
I need to sell these. I inherited all from my parents and sister, who were collectors.
They mostly small, one big lamp (about 18 inches, and a smaller tri footed lamp on the blue- green. A number of vase FROGS and two sets of suger and creamer, both red.
We are downsizing to a small retirement cottage, or I would keep everything.
Anyone seriously interested, let me know.
During a move I lost a van Briggle rose colored bird on a branch lamp and am trying to replace it. Will appreciate any leads to where I can find one
I am looking for the Geronimo head bust. Do you know where I can find one for sale any where in Montana?
Thanks for your time.
I have a small wine vase that says van Briggle with USA under it. I wondered what it was worth?
My question is since Bertha died is the pottery still in operation?
I have a wine color vase with hit of blue on bottom. It is signed and # .has th AA & Colo. Do you have any idea what it is worth? I haven’t found this exact one yet on line. Thank You, Lucy
I am not familiar with the markings. I’ll send a photo.
Maybe you can educate me.
I worked for van briggle 1949-1951. I have 2 pieces purchased in that time: grecian vase and original thrown & signed small bowl. Do you purchase such?
If I send you a picture of a set of vases and the markings on the bottom, could you give me information on the same and an approx. value?
