Description
These three bowls were made by Walter Benjamin Stephen (1875-1961). Each one has a green outer glaze and a yellow interior. The bottom of the pottery is marked with the trademark image of a potter working at the wheel. The bowls are designed to fit into the pine wood frame for ease in carrying them. It is not known who made the wooden frames. Stephen opened the Pisgah Forest Pottery in Arden, North Carolina around 1926 and the pottery still operates today.
