Gonder produced an eclectic mix of art pottery and shipped it all over the United States. Shape designs used plants, animals and the sea as natural subject matter. The crackle glazes, gold, blue and white, and animal-shaped pieces, both figurines and vases, are difficult to find and bring the highest prices. However, there are a few pieces that are not marked, or were marked with a paper label, which has been removed, and Gonder collectors seek these out. Once you become accustomed to the Gonder glazes you usually can recognized them from across a room.
Many pieces have a double glaze, with a pink underglaze.
These pieces almost always display pink on the interior of the piece. The only exceptions are the crackle glazes, which may display any color on the interior. Another method used by collectors to identify unmarked pieces has been the presence of the kiln stand mark. This is a straight line indentation on the edge of the piece where it rested while being fired in the kiln. Usually, three such lines are found, an equal distance apart.
