Look at that perfect glossy orange glaze and those classic MCM stripes." The "Harmony" line name adds a level of prestige. This is a 1960s McCoy American pottery pedestal bowl with a glossy burnt-orange glaze with horizontal cream/tan striations. That striated orange-over-cream glaze technique was a signature McCoy decorative treatment of the era, and the asymmetrical boat-shaped bowl on a tapered pedestal foot is a classic MCM design silhouette. McCoy pottery is one of the most actively collected American mid-century pottery lines, and pedestal/compote forms in bold MCM glazes are especially popular for retro and atomic-era home styling. Works beautifully as a fruit bowl, centerpiece, or catch-all display piece on a credenza or sideboard. The hero feature here is the striated glaze technique itself — this hand-applied color-pull effect gives each piece subtle one-of-a-kind variation, which is exactly what MCM pottery collectors look for versus a flat, uniform glaze. Combined with McCoy's strong brand recognition and the sculptural pedestal silhouette, this bowl checks every box.
