Story
Post-war America saw a massive surge in 'Southwest Chic' as the new interstate highway system allowed families to explore the American West for the first time.
Maker / Origin
While the specific studio isn't stamped, the incised mold number is characteristic of the 'California Pottery' movement, which included hundreds of small to mid-sized workshops.
Condition & Value
The piece shows fine crazing (tiny spider-web lines) in the glaze, which is a natural aging process for ceramics of this period and often adds to the vintage character. Value is driven by the popularity of Mid-Century Modern decor and the highly desirable 'tangerine' color.
