Book Synopsis The Traditional Potters of Seagrove, North Carolina by : Robert C. Lock
Download or read book The Traditional Potters of Seagrove, North Carolina written by Robert C. Lock and published by Alexander Books. This book was released on 1994 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An encyclopedia of Seagrove, North Carolina area pottery from the 1800s to the present covering identification, styling, glazes, values, rarity & marks. More than a book for collectors & dealers, it presents the story of independent Southern potters who never strayed far from their roots & traditions. Active since the 1700s, these families developed a style & presence never replicated in the United States. As utilitarian ware was displaced, they had to change to survive. By the 1920s, tens of thousands of pieces of hand-turned artware from this community were being shipped to customers like New York's Macy's, Chicago's Marshall-Fields, & garden & gift shops throughout the Midwest, South & Northeast. When they made salt-glazed ware, its quality was near porcelain-like. When they moved to artware & competed with the factory potteries of the early 1900s, their ware was lighter, more varied, & truly unique. With over 600 color photographs, HB, & color dust jacket, this large format book creates a new price/value point in historical/collector oriented books. Robert C.

Many generations of potters followed in their footsteps, and today hundreds of potters and ceramics artists turn out ware in every part of the state. In the town of Seagrove, there's a whole museum and educational center dedicated to North Carolina pottery production. Many private and public collections exist. Buyers seek it out at auctions, antique shops, kiln openings, festivals, and studio sales. This book is chock-full of images representing all periods and styles of pottery made in the state, including many published for the first time.

Book excerpt: Mary Elizabeth Auman was a teenager living in the rural south during the waning years of the Jazz Age when electricity, the radio, talking movies, and the 1928 Presidential election were the talk of her community. After rescuing her diary from being discarded by his father in the late 1950s, her nephew, William Auman, held on to the written memories for years until recently when, as a tribute to her memory, he decided to share both Mary's insight into the social and academic life she experienced as well as his own historical clarifications. Through her journal entries, Mary presents a portrait of life in a rural southern village, describing many trips with friends to parties, movies, and fairs. While providing vivid accounts of life in the dormitories at coed Elon College and social activities at parties, ball games, and other collegiate events, she also details how she and her classmates rebelled against the taboos of dating, dancing, and smoking often finding themselves on probation or suspended from school as punishment. The Diary of Mary Elizabeth Auman, Seagrove, North Carolina, 1928 1930 Provides a fascinating glimpse into southern history and into the development of a rebellious attitude by young females against the gender conventions of the day in a rapidly changing world.
Book Synopsis North Carolina's Hillside Pottery and Smithfield Art Pottery by : STEPHEN C. COMPTON
Download or read book North Carolina's Hillside Pottery and Smithfield Art Pottery written by STEPHEN C. COMPTON and published by . This book was released on 2024-07-31 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A clever collaboration between potter, Herman C. Cole, and artist and entrepreneur, Anna M. Graham, led to the creation of Hillside Pottery in 1927. Located along the banks of the Neuse River near Smithfield, in Johnston County, North Carolina, the operation catered to passing motorists on Highway 22 between Northern homes and Florida vacations and to New York and other out-of-state merchants. Brought up in one of the state's most celebrated pottery-making families, Cole had all the required skills to make quality products while Graham drew sketches of shapes to be completed and found Northern vendors to buy the wares. In addition, Cole called upon some of North Carolina's most talented turners to keep up with customer demand. By 1931, Hillside's name was changed to Smithfield Art Pottery, making it clear that this was not a jug factory. Additional potters were employed, multiple kilns were constructed, including two enormous bottle kilns, and as many as 2,000 pieces were shipped weekly. The recent discovery of never-before-published photographs and drawings makes possible the telling of the complete story of the pottery with two names.
