Art Antiques Michigan
I have been an avid collector of country, primitive antiques for about 50 years. During those years I have collected, sold, collected, sold---you know how that goes. I was a single owner antique shop for many years. With the onset of the internet my selling venue has changed. I now have a website https://artantiquesmichigan.com/. Some of you may know me from there. I hope to bring to my Dig site the same quality country, primitive antiques as I offer on my website, at reasonable prices. I will update my Dig site every month between the 15th. and 17th. of each month. You will find fresh to market items at that time. My preferred method of payment is by check. Made payable to Joanne Getz. I offer a lay a way plan to help you with your purchases. Michigan residents add 6% Sales Tax. I do hope you will stop by often. I can be reached nearly anytime at joannemargetz@gmail.com or call me 9894281009.
Love this little piece. The proportions of this bowl give it the best look, small with high sides. Looks fabulous filled with berries. The paint is original, with some wear. It is an Emerald Green, quite striking. Unusual feature is the recessed bottom. The bowl measures 6 1/4 in diameter x 3 1/4 inches tall. Excellent condition. American treenware, circa late 19th. century.

19TH CENTURY MOCHAWARE PEPPER POT- This is a 19th century mochaware pepper pot. The pepper pot is decorated with two blue bands on top and two blue bands on the bottom of a wonderful dendritic seaweed design that encircles the pepper pot. This design is very appealing to collectors. The pepper pot measures 4 1/2” tall. The pepper pot has wonderful color and is in good condition. The base of the pepper pot has damage as seen in the photos, also some loss of color on the blue bands and a chip on the top rim. This pepper pot has been in my collection for many years, if displayed on a shelf or wall box the pot can be turned so the damaged base and chip are not visible. Without this damage the pepper pot would be three-four times the price.

This is a very fine looking, c. 1850 round pantry box with original grain painted decoration in Mustard paint. This is possibly a Lancaster Co., Pa. piece as this style of grain painting is found on many utilitarian items from this area–e.g. buckets, firkins, salt boxes. All nails and pegs are present, and the paint is in excellent condition. The bottom has two exposed nails, but it is still tight. The lid fits snugly and has a few small rubs. It measures 9 1/2″ diameter and 5″ tall. It would be a stunning addition to a stack, but it is a great piece in its own right. The lid is original. I think the sides of the lid were just rubbed with white paint while the top of the lid was grain painted. This has been part of a CT collection.

An extremely nice, small sized, slide lid candle box. This little box has several very nice features. One is the original Blue painted surface. It does show wear, but the wear is appropriate for the age and use of the box. The construction is dovetailed, the lid is nicely stylized. What I believe to be an unusual feature of this box is the sharply chamfered bottom panel. The size is certainly another attractive feature, it measures only 9 1/4 x 4 x 5 1/4 inches. Excellent condition. American, circa mid to late 19th. century.
