Description

Vintage Art Pottery Vase
Description and Item Information
Up for sale is this old art pottery vase. Please excuse any glare in the photos. This nicely proportioned vase has somewhat angular handles and a glossy, blended glaze. It stands about 4 3/4 inches tall, and it has a maximum width of approximately 3 1/8 inches. It feels a bit heavy for its size, weighing 14.3 ounces, unpacked. Beneath, a buff clay body is exposed, with tripod kiln stilt marks. This would be a great addition to a collection of American art pottery.
Identification
This pot has an incised mark beneath which may say "3" or possibly an "E" over a "G." The maker is not known. I purchased this piece 20 years ago in Missouri. I kept it because I thought I would eventually figure out who made it, but I never did. It was probably made by a small studio, or perhaps by a tile manufacturer. The exact age of this piece is not known, but it is either vintage or antique.
Condition
This piece looks good overall, with light wear and no cracks. There is a tiny (about 1/16 inch) flake/chip to the exterior rim, which does not detract (as shown in Photos 2 and 6). There are some fine wear scratches. As made, there is a glazed over fissure on one side of one handle, where it attaches to the vase. Excess glaze was ground off of the bottom when this was made, and there are a couple of basal side edge glaze flakes associated with this process. Please review the description and photos, and ask any necessary questions prior to bidding or buying.
