Description: Estate Find Glazed VaseJugtown Ware PotteryNorth Carolina We offer a hand turned ceramic vase with a green mottled glaze crafted by a potter associated with the cooperative known as Jugtown Ware Pottery in Seagrove, North Carolina. We estimate that the vase was crafted in the 1930s - 40s era and bears the impressed circular Jugtown Ware stamp to the base. The vase measures 6” in height and 4 3/4” in width. The opening measures 2 3/4” in diameter and 4 3/4” in diameter at the base. Jugtown Pottery was founded in 1921 by Jacques and Juliana Busbee, artists from Raleigh, North Carolina, who in 1917 discovered an orange pie dish and traced it back to Moore County. There, they found a local tradition of utilitarian pottery in orange, earthenware, and salt glazes. The Busbees saw an opportunity to help save a dying craft, and in 1918 they set up the village store in Greenwich Village, New York, in order to sell the pottery. The Busbees were recognized for fostering the continued crafting of utilitarian ceramics using the same production methods of eighteen century colonial potters.
