Vintage Niloak Art Pottery Hywood Ozark Dawn Ribbed Bud Vasr

In my adventure to identify this beautiful pot, I learned so much more about Niloak Pottery and it's enthusiastic collaboration with talented outside experts to create some of its most collectible shapes and glazes. Stoin M Stoin, famously of Weller Pottery, brought his beautiful traditional glazes over to assist Niloak in their transition and expansion. He is credited with the conceptualization of this Hywood line which is the birth of the Ozark Dawn glazes. After a poor lead and false start, I have found this shape definitively photographed and listed in the Collector's Encyclopedia of Niloak, 1993, written by David Edwin Gifford. Gifford is still very active in the Arkansas collecting and identification scene today. This shape is found on the top right of page 167, plate 90. She stands 3.75 inches tall and 2 inches across the rim. She has some adorable glaze and production quirks, but not one chip, flake, or fissure. Unusual and special in every way. May she go to a good home.
