Metlox - Kitchenware

Metlox Pottery began in 1927 in Manhattan Beach, California and grew to become one of California's premier pottery companies. There were two divisions within Metlox, the Poppytrail Division and the Vernonware Division (due to Metlox's purchase of Vernon Kilns in 1942). I carry over 60 patterns of Metlox. The Vernonware Division is listed separately (another 62 patterns). Metlox closed in 1989.

Cookie Jar

Metlox not only produced some fine dinnerware but also other items for the household, including cookie jars.

Gourmet

Metlox produced several different Gourmet canister sets. The "Gourmet" set (as opposed to the Gourmet II set) features wine, fruits and cheeses. There were four sizes, 3 qt., 2 1/2 qt., 1 1/2 qt. and 1 qt (11", 10", 9", and 7" respectively.)
