Maurice of California pottery

No he wasn't a fashion designer,
even though it really sounds like he was.
Maurice of California was a company that made ceramic pieces,
including these ones, in the middle of the last century.

I found all of them at a recent local estate sale,
relegated to a spot under a table in the garage.
The colors and shapes drew me in for a closer look.
Since California pottery is highly collectible I took them all.

They are great for recreating a "Mad Man" vibe,
adding to a mid-century modern interior design
or even just using as a unique centerpiece.
