Vintage Spongeware Mug RRP Co Earthenware Stoneware

This incredible durable spongeware mug is great for a cup of coffee or hot chocolate. Nice and sturdy. Decorated using the spongeware technique in blue. This mug was made by the RRP Co in Roseville Ohio. Sometimes RRP Co is confused with Roseville Pottery. Understandable since both companies contain Roseville in their marks. These two companies are completely different companies. Roseville is actually the town in Ohio where RRP Co. was located. (The other manufacturer was in Roseville before moving to Zanesville, OH). A surefire way to tell the difference is that RRP created heavy, earthy utilitarian items such as stoneware, planters, cookie jars, crocks, etc. whereas, Roseville created art pieces. Marked R.R.P. Co Roseville Ohio USA. Excellent condition. No chips, cracks or crazing. Measures 4"T x 3-3/4" W opening
