This is a pottery head of a football player. It is a strong and expressive piece of folk art sculpture. It measures 8" high by 6 1/2" wide by about 6" deep, and is of unknown age, but it is old. It is solid, not hollow, and very heavy. The condition is fair: part of the face guard on the helmet is missing, and there is minor flaking on the surface. In spite of this, it is a vivid folk art portrait with great "presence". The price is $375.00. Inventory Code: TACK. Pottery football player ... Another view ... One side ... The other side ...

This is a very strange redware skull. It is shaped like a primitive fossil skull rather than a modern human one, and glazed white. It has been broken and reglued (no missing pieces), strengthening the impression that it is a fossil. It is fairly detailed, with heavy teeth and sockets where two teeth would be missing if it were a real skull. (They are not really missing, it was made this way.) It has no lower jaw. There is a signature on the bottom that is not quite legible; it looks like B. Volken. The size is 5 1/2" high by 5" wide by 7" deep. The price is $210.00. Inventory Code: PAHH. Image.

Here is a very interesting pottery bowl. It is covered with incised figures of people, animals, and designs. It is glazed both inside and in the incisings. It was hand formed, not turned, but probably made by the coil method. Found in the NC mountains; it is signed Daniel Ray Owen; and most likely was done within the last 20 years. It is 7" high by approximately 8 1/2" in diameter, in perfect condition. The price is $275.00. Inventory Code: POHW. Image.
Here are some pieces of tourist ware pottery. We have several more besides these, all hand done with various different glazes, and in different sizes and shapes. For all of them, their age is hard to pin down but they are certainly not new. We were told these were primarily made in the 1940's and 50's in the South, Ozarks, and Appalachia. Regardless of their age and origin they are really very nice, functional and decorative objects.
