Roseville Chloron Shapes

Chloron is an early period Art Nouveau line introduced by Roseville Pottery in 1905. The standard color is matte green. The decorations, mostly floral, are only slightly raised. Chloron can sometimes be found marked with a distinctive “Chloron” inkstamp. The line resembles the designs of a later pattern called Egypto, so unmarked pieces may be mistaken for Egypto. The pattern includes only 19 different shapes, including vases, bowls, ewers, and candlesticks. Many of these shaped were later used by Roseville in the Egypto and Mara patterns.
