Didn't see anything similar on Replacements.com under Hartstone. This set is very heavy stoneware. I was told that it's a cocoa set but can't identify the 3 serving pieces - hot chocolate, marshmallows, and what else?

I hope I've got it right to show the images...

Can't tell you the pattern, but from what I have been able to find, I would list them as:

Vintage Hartstone Pottery Signed Cocoa Chocolate Set RARE

Looks like the hand signed pieces are much older. The company has just been reopened but their website does not have much info yet.

Hartstone Pottery started in 1975 in the building formerly Chatham Potters in Chatham, NJ. In 1979, they moved to the former J.B. Owens plant in Zanesville, OH. When I listed a creamer on eBay, I listed under Owens. Didn't sell for much....I think $4.95. I don't think I would call it rare.

I did not mean that Hartstone was rare, I meant that an early incised vs stamped Hartstone complete chocolate set is rare.

I rarely call an item rare unless I can't find it anywhere else.

For the item to be hand imprinted, that means they probably were not firing 2000 of them a week. With modern production methods, they maybe popping 2K of these out of the oven ever 4 hours.

Heres the same pattern but this seller didn't name the pattern either and is calling the covered piece a honey pot.
