Mid-Century Studio Pottery Triple Leaf Dish, c. 1960s-1970s

Story

During the 1960s and 70s, a 'ceramic craze' swept across suburban America, leading to the rise of thousands of small local studios where individuals could learn the art of glazing and firing.

Maker / Origin

While the specific identity of the artist 'H. J.' remains a mystery of the local studio circuit, they were part of a vast movement of 'Sunday Potters' and small-scale artisans.

Condition & Value

The glaze appears bright and well-preserved with no major chips or cracks visible on the upper surface. There is some typical shelf wear and minor discoloration on the unglazed foot, which is standard for its age. The lack of chips on the delicate leaf points is a significant plus for collectors.
