Description |
This large and rare work from J. B. Owens Pottery Company (1885-1907) was likely created in 1905. The vase appeared in an Owen's advertisement in the 1903 issue of Glass and Pottery World. Although Owen's did not give this line a name, collectors refer to works in this line as Jeweled because jewels or medallions are featured in each piece. |
