David Haynes's D.F. Haynes & Co. established around 1881, elevated the quality of the products available to the middleclass rather than to crafting pieces that only the richest could afford, as was common with European pottery. He created beautiful pieces and marketed them to the masses at bargain prices. Although considered a top artist in American pottery, Haynes's business practices would eventually lead to his financial fall. His pieces were awarded gold and silver ribbons at several of the nation's largest fairs such as the World's Columbian Exposition and the Philadelphia Centennial Exposition. Around 1885, D.F. Haynes & Co. introduced several types of pottery including what some consider Haynes's most beautiful work. Calvertine, a white majolica, was decorated in gold, and its bands were grooved on a lathe.

Measurements: The mug is 4 1/2 inches tall X 5 inches from handle to mug end X 3 inch diameter opening. The bowl is 3 inches tall X 5 1/4 wide.

Condition: These pieces are in overall good, vintage condition. There are a few marks and they are highly crazed. The gold is wearing from natural wear. The mug has a crack and chip on the inside and a crack in the flower design (see photos below). The bowl has a few cracks besides the crazing lines.
