Sold -- Thank You!!
This is indeed a find – a hanging basket planter from McCoy’s butterfly line of the early 1940s!
Although produced as a hanging planter, it is also free-standing.
Planter photos may appear pink (depending on your monitor) but it is actually a lovely pale lilac color (listed as lavender in reference books). It measures 4 1/8” tall, 6 3/8” diameter, and bottom is marked NM, USA.
It is in excellent condition for its age with a few typical McFlaws -- production pin-pops/flake-offs – nothing detrimental or worthy of mention. The only “use” evidence is a ¼” glaze ding on rim edge – it is not visible but can be felt – I would not rate this as detrimental in any way. This is a very difficult to find McCoy item and is in a very collectible color.
