Lewis, Lucy – Plate with Double Birds (1960s)

3.75" diameter

$ 300.00

Lucy Lewis is one of the great Matriarch potters of the past century. This small plate is coil-built and painted using bee-weed (a plant) and clay slips.  The plate has two birds in the center with connecting wings.  The plate was traditionally fired so the white has much more of a pearlescent coloration, which creates added depth.  It is signed, “Lucy M. Lewis”.  It is in very good condition with no chips, cracks, restoration, or repair.
