Circa: 2000-2009 Manufacturer: Georges Scatchard Pottery, Underhill, Vermont
This Georges Scatchard 4 3/4 inch handled jug is a good example of the work that Scatchard has been doing since the 1960s. The inside of the jug is a dark blue glaze. The outside resembles his standard glaze for which he is known but if you look closely there are some subtle undertones of purple in a few places. His handle is perhaps one of his trademark designs.
This piece is signed on the bottom G. Scatchard and the year 200?. There is some damage to the bottom of the piece. I don't know if it was dropped or was a second. It does not affect how the jug sits on a flat surface.
The outside of the goblet is done in a mottled blue glaze and one can see both inclusions and the horizontal rings from the throwing. A beautiful piece.
His studio is located in Underhill, Vermont but he is currently no longer producing work as he recently sold his lamp business; he no longer has an open shop.
Georges Scatchard started from a converted horsebarn with his brother Ted in 1960. An article about the two Scatchard brothers and their ceramics was published in the 1967 Spring issue of Vermont Life on pages 38-42. According to the article, he was the only New Englander to receive a merit award for three items (all pottery) entered in the 1965-1966 New England Craft Council's exhibition for new and emerging craftsmen.
