I have several price lists. One has Nov. 1, 1990 at the top. Another is a mail order form for seconds dated Dec. 2, 1991 and the other is for the Thanksgiving Seconds sale dated Nov. 1992. I used to go to the sales at Thanksgiving and Mothers day and have some pieces in Roan Mt. and Martha's Flowers. I also have several Christmas plates.
ReplyDeleteCould you scan and send me digital copies of your catalogs?

I received my beginning set of Iron Mountain's Roan Mountain in December 1973 in Kansas City, Missouri from Hartzfeld's Department Store.
It was a wedding present from my Mother.
We both loved the dishes and she had worked at Hartzfeld's while she was pregnant with me in 1952 - it was our favorite place to shop.
Would love to chat with you sometime as I have a long history with Iron Mountain.
I found you because I need to replace my entire collection of Roan Mountain because after living in Asia for 13 years my Roan Mountain was lost by the international shipper in our returning home to the USA shipment.
Sad does not begin to express this event as I am sure all of you understand.
It was my use everyday for everything dishes and my set was quite extensive.
I found you when on a whim I searched this morning for Iron Mountain Pottery.
I am so grateful and joyful to know of all of you and the possibility I might one day have Roan Mountain back in my life.
My email is tgpcld@aol.com.
Thank you.

ReplyDeleteHow can I reach you to discuss who designed this line for IMS?
I have an old note that said a potter named "Kaneko" was involved.
Thanks.

I have a section on Kaneko under Artists within the blog. Kaneko may have been an influence on some of the designs, but at this time I have discovered that Nancy Patterson Lamb was the artist who designed most of the stoneware patterns which were mass produced by hand at the factory. I monitor the comments here, so contact me via a comment and I will be in touch if you seek more information.
DeleteI purchased a complete 10 place setting of Roan Mountain (plates, cups, saucers, serving bowls, bread/dessert and salad plates, sugar bowl and creamer, pitcher, platter, etc.,) in 1965. My mother and I would visit Laural Bloomery once a year to replace/add dishes to our sets. I continue to love using Roan Mountain, especially around this time of the year. I just visited eBay and found a lid to the sugar bowl (never purchased at the time). A few small chips but in general, very hearty stoneware service through the 50+ years. November 2016, M. Sebastianelli
ReplyDeleteI have always loved Iron Mountain Stoneware. I was lucky enough to buy a set of Blue Ridge in the early 70's at the factory and when Lookout mountain was created I bought a set of it. Over the ears when I would be home in East Tennessee I would go up to the factory and shop. My sister loved it also and bought a large set of Whispering Pines. Whenever we were home, we would go up to the factory. It was a special place, and these are special dishes. I am always so happy I bought them when I use them. So dad they are no longer available.
ReplyDeleteI have a monumental tile scene done by Nancy P. Lamb it was completed in 1989. I consider it a national treasure - I would love to post a picture for the true lovers of her magnificent work. It is over 46 Tiles in all and I would love to have Nancy tell me about this piece.... it is an entire farm scene and it is masterfully done... What an amazing woman of talent and vision. Her work is so special.
ReplyDeleteCarol and Joe Herrlie Married 5/18/1975 Whispering Pines was our dish selection when we registered. We have a huge collection. Dinner services for 24, cups, teapots, salt and peppers, creamers and...LOVE THEM. Good friends loved the pattern and also purchased the same. After a divorce and new wife, new wife wanted to change and gave us the first marriages collection. SCORE! Long lasting and never tired of them. A family tradition esp at holidays. Now, downsizing, we are looking for a new home for them. Our family not interested.Sad. Any idea who buys large sets of them?
