Uncommon Glazes: American Art Pottery August 5, 2009

Art pottery - pottery used for decorating and not for any practical function - played an important role in the decoration of middle-class homes in America during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This exhibition presents 45 examples by the leading art potters of the period, such as Rookwood, Wheatley, Roseville, Weller and Newcomb.
