Blue Ridge Southern Pottery operated in Erwin, Tennessee from 1917 to 1957, producing hand-painted dinnerware that has since become one of the most enthusiastically collected American pottery lines — with clubs, conventions, and devoted collectors still searching for patterns and replacement pieces. The Carnival pattern is one of their florals. We have 2 available. Search the site for additional Blue Ridge pieces.
