A handsome vintage Cookson Pottery window box planter in a rich, high-gloss forest green glaze — a classic mid-century American art pottery form that's both sculptural and functional. This is the Cookson Pottery model #557, a generously proportioned rectangular planter featuring a bold band of inset oval medallions that wrap around all four sides, framed above and below by clean horizontal ridges. Four rounded ball feet elevate the piece and give it a refined, finished look from every angle.
The deep forest green glaze pools beautifully in the recessed ovals and ridges, creating rich tonal variation that catches the light. The interior is fully glazed in the same green. A versatile piece that works beautifully as a vintage ceramic window box planter for succulents or trailing plants, a desktop organizer, or a standalone decorative object on a mantle, console, or bookshelf.
