Vintage Nemadji Pottery

I first saw Nemadji Pottery on the fab.com vintage market and immediately fell in love. The colors of the clay have a wonderful water color effect, giving it a very modern feel. Who would have guessed these pieces were made decades ago? If you're looking to purchase Nemadji Pottery for yourself, they can be found all over eBay and etsy!

"Nemadji pottery is that early 20th century invention that somehow got mixed up with a Native American tribe. The Minnesota-based Nemadji pottery company began manufacturing this colorful, swirled pottery in 1929 and promoted it as being “Indian inspired.” Over the years, advertising became truth in the minds of many, leading to mistaken claims over authentic Native American pottery. This set of five vessels contains one confirmed Nemadji, a piece you can now profess to know the truth about."
