Tea Bowl #2 in Frogskin, 5"dia. (Ben Owen Sr.)

   This Tea Bowl in Teadust glaze was made by Ben Owen Sr. circa 1960 at Old Plank Road Pottery - now known as Ben Owen Pottery.  A lovely piece of North Carolina history!  The perfect size for a candy dish, serving peanuts, or to hold your keys and/or jewelry. Measuring 5” outside dia. x 4.5" inside dia. x 2.5”h.Please Note: What appear to be white spots on the surface are reflections from photo lighting.PLEASE NOTE CRACK ON BOTTOM - SEE PHOTOThis beautiful Tea Bowl has a half-circle crack along the bottom.  Although still a lovely collectible and a great example of Ben Owen Sr.'s work, we do want the buyer to be aware. Not recommended for dishwasher or food use, as crack may be increased over time. Thank you!Frogskin Glaze   Frogskin is the same glaze as a Teadust glaze but fired in the back of a salt glaze groundhog kiln where salt is added to the firing at the very end.  The sodium in the salt reacts similarly to the way bleach works on clothing by bleaching the iron-rich glaze cre
