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.

Book Synopsis The Moravian Potters in North Carolina by : John Bivins (Jr.)
Download or read book The Moravian Potters in North Carolina written by John Bivins (Jr.) and published by University of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 1972 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Wachovia, the various trash pits or middens associated with early Moravian inhabitants, as well as the potters' waster dumps, both in Bethabara and Salem, have provided us with significant insights into an incredibly complex eighteenth-and early nineteenth-century earthenware production. Although local antiquarians and collectors have been aware for many years that pottery constituted one of the largest early industries carried on by the Moravians in North Carolina, it was for the most part only the well-kept archival records that testified to this fact. Fine examples of slip-decorated pottery, as wekk as some utilitarian forms, existed in local collections and in the Wachovia Museum in Old Salem, but it was not until the excavations at Bethabara were begun that anyone became aware of the real significance of the tradition in which local potters were working. -- pg. 4.
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.

Book Synopsis Catawba Indian Pottery by : Thomas J. Blumer
Download or read book Catawba Indian Pottery written by Thomas J. Blumer and published by University of Alabama Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traces the craft of pottery making among the Catawba Indians of North Carolina from the late 18th century to the present When Europeans encountered them, the Catawba Indians were living along the river and throughout the valley that carries their name near the present North Carolina-South Carolina border. Archaeologists later collected and identified categories of pottery types belonging to the historic Catawba and extrapolated an association with their protohistoric and prehistoric predecessors. In this volume, Thomas Blumer traces the construction techniques of those documented ceramics to the lineage of their probable present-day master potters or, in other words, he traces the Catawba pottery traditions. By mining data from archives and the oral traditions of contemporary potters, Blumer reconstructs sales circuits regularly traveled by Catawba peddlers and thereby illuminates unresolved questions regarding trade routes in the protohistoric period. In addition, the author details particular techniques of the representative potters—factors such as clay selection, tool use, decoration, and firing techniques—which influence their styles.
