Meep Posted August 1 Report Share Posted August 1 I’ve only seen blue and brown but not purple. 0.58” I also know there are the green fancy ones. Do Benningtons come in all colors? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire1981 Posted August 1 Report Share Posted August 1 No doubt! Killer Keeper for sure. I consider this color combo to be HTF if not VHT. If someone has an example to post and think they are common please do. It’s not a knock off Bennington. 🔥 RAR 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted Friday at 10:35 PM Report Share Posted Friday at 10:35 PM I am a bit skeptical here. If you can feel the surface of the eyes and report back, I might be a believer. Marble—On!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted Saturday at 03:00 AM Report Share Posted Saturday at 03:00 AM Tricky! It does look like it was fired on the old school kiln racks. The reaction of the glaze on the prongs make sense. The prongs are hotter then the temperature in the kiln🔥 RAR 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted Saturday at 12:41 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 12:41 PM Pink Bennington's are the hardest to find 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meep Posted Saturday at 02:39 PM Author Report Share Posted Saturday at 02:39 PM So it’s only a painted or dyed clay? Were these painted or dyed as a hobby? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted Saturday at 05:18 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 05:18 PM Real Benington's are glazed and fired clay, not painted or dyed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buypast Posted Saturday at 06:41 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 06:41 PM Chad Are you saying the color of benningtons is the clay color? If not clay color where does the color come from? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted Saturday at 06:55 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 06:55 PM It’s a glaze. The same you find on pottery🔥 RAR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meep Posted Saturday at 08:51 PM Author Report Share Posted Saturday at 08:51 PM Are there glazed clays that are not Benningtons? Also, are there glazed clays that have colors other than the natural clay color? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can feel the surface of the eyes and report back, I might be a believer. Marble—On!! Hi @akroorka I researched it, they're calling these painted clays. The eyes are not like the Benningtons. My question is, are these still considered antique? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted Tuesday at 05:57 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 05:57 PM I am wary of these. Anyone see why? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
