Sewer Pipe Folk Art Pottery Plaque of a Woman



Sewer Pipe Folk Art Pottery Plaque of a Woman.  Red clay, salt glazed and embellished by hand.  The border was formed by pressing a thumb into the clay. all the way around.  This piece was made "commercially" in that a mold was used, but there is no way to determine how many were made.  This piece was enhanced by the application of a pebble on the neck to represent necklace bauble.  A similar example, sans pebble, is illustrated in Sewer Pipe Folk Art by Jack Adamson.  There is a small, impressed logo of a seated potter under the woman's chin, but it is very hard to see. 9" x 13"
