Collectible Rockdale Union Stoneware Salt Glaze Jug Vase

"Peter Wakefield Jackson is a potter with more than 35 years' experience, interested in beautiful form, simple utility, the history of potters and pottery, and the ongoing struggle for viability in the marketplace for handmade artisan goods.""Peter grew up in Tulsa, making his first pots at Philbrook Art Center in 1971. During the summer of 1972, Peter and his dad built a kick potter's wheel in the basement of the family home, and by 1974 he was showing his pottery at local art fairs. After studying ceramics at Knox College with Henry Joe, who had been a student of world-renowned potter, Warren MacKenzie, he attended a summer workshop with MacKenzie, which led to an apprenticeship with Minnesota wood-firing potter, Wayne Branum.""In 1984 he founded Rockdale Union Stoneware, which grew to become one of the largest producers of handmade salt-glazed stoneware in the U.S."Now that you know the story - or at least part of it - here is the opportunity to own this beautiful piece from Rockdale Union Stoneware.Please view the pictures carefully.They describe the piece better that my words can.They also give the dimensions.As a vintage, handmade piece there are minor imperfections.Again, please examine the pictures carefully.Questions?
