Vintage VERNON KILNS California Pottery May Flower Vernonware Shakers & Creamer

Description

Disclaimer:
In no way am I claiming to be an expert in anything.  Please read the description provided and the images to confirm what you are certain of.  I do appreciate added information related to items I have listed.
Please excuse any glare in the photos.  Here you have salt and pepper shakers with a matching creamer from Vernon Kilns (1942-1953).  The creamer is marked on the bottom, "Hand Painted Under Glaze Vernon Kilns Calif. Made In U.S.A. May Flower".  The shakers are marked, "May Flower Made In U.S.A.".  The shakers are just under 3.00" in height.  They are shaped like an egg sitting atop a pedestal.  The round base is 1.75" across the center while the cork hole is 0.50" across.  These are without their corks.  The creamer is 4.25" in height to the tallest portion of the spout (from a flat surface).  The width to the outside of the handle, is approximately 5.50".  The round bottom is 2 5/8" across the center.  The overall design of the creamer is very attractive, as are the shakers.  The hand painted details are in phenomenal condition.  I do not see obvious evidence of the decoration being compromised or faded.  There is a small chip in the base of the creamer.  This is small measuring 1/8" going with the foot and 1/8" side to side.  That is the only issue I can find with these three pieces.  No crazing, no staining, no other chips, no repairs, and no fading.
Anomalies that occur with vintage pieces from this manufacturer are not mentioned but should be expected.
A note about 'vintage' or 'antique' pieces: they are to be considered preowned.  Evidence of some use and/or age should be expected, but damage WILL BE described and photographed.
STANDARD INFORMATION (
APPLIES TO ALL LISTINGS UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED ABOVE
)
Invoicing:
Invoices are automatically sent after the close of an auction with what 'should' include the cost of shipping.  The Ebay shipping calculator does NOT take into account priority mail
Flat Rate
shipping costs or
Rate A of Rate B boxes
, unless specified by the seller.  It is important to me that winners are only charged the actual cost of shipping and/or insurance, especially if I have stated a specific cost in my listing.
Please do not hesitate to message me if you think an Ebay invoice is incorrect or even if you would like me to double check shipping costs to your location.
Often I cannot determine and actual shipping cost until I receive a buyer's zip code and consider the size of the box necessary for safe shipping.  Combined shipping can also save you money.  Your satisfaction with the item and how it gets to you is a priority.

This item will be shipped within the continental United States using the U.S. priority mail service, unless otherwise specified.  The
most economical priority mail service
will be used to ship this item to the winning bidder.  Insurance is included up to a value of .00.  Additional insurance may be purchased by the buyer upon request.
International interest is appreciated and considered by the seller.  Shipping quotes are to be requested prior to bidding or buying.  The seller will determine the international shipping method.  Import duties or taxes are not included in the item price or shipping charges.  These charges are the responsibility of the buyer.
Return Policy:
Of course I do this to earn a buck or two, but I am not in this to rip people off.  I do everything possible to be transparent when listing items.  I do accept returns on the condition that I made an egregious error in the listing and misrepresented the item.  Please be a responsible bidder and review the listing in its entirety and ask questions prior to bidding.  Enjoy your day!
