Produced by Vermont Mid-Century studio potter Stanley Ballard, a student of Glidden Parker at Alfred University in the 1940s who worked in the Burlington area, this is one of Ballard's smallest vases, the number 40 shape. It stands 2 1/2 inches tall and is 2 5/8 inches square at the top. This particular example carries the original Ballard paper label which states Hand Made Porcelain A Product of Vermont Craftsmanship.
The glaze on this small piece is a standard Ballard white glaze with the chocolate brown underglaze visible at the top rim and at the very bottom of the base. This dates this piece to Ballard's middle production period. |
