"Steeped in ceramics from birth, Hugh C. Robertson pursued his craft with fierce devotion and a passion for experimentation. From a family of trained English ceramists, he honed his skills in New Jersey before settling in Massachusetts as one of the founders of Chelsea Keramic Art Works and later, Dedham Pottery. Robertson’s lifelong explorations in glazes, particularly their color and texture, make him one of the key figures of American art pottery at the turn of the twentieth century.

... Many of his Dedham vessels have brilliant layerings of red and purple glazes. Experimenting with a daring, difficult-to-control method, Robertson tried painting designs with glaze onto glaze, layering one over the other. The propensity for the glazes to flow together or even run off the vessel made this technique very challenging."

I'm so pleased to hear you like this one, Eleanor! I give 99.333% of the credit to the Met. Of course, their collection is fabulous but in addition, they do such an amazing job with their photographs and make them easy to download. Anyway, thank you for expressing your appreciation, my friend.

Absolutely fabulous, Carol!
The pottery is gorgeous, the photo does it credit, and as a puzzle, it is a wonderful challenged...loved every moment of it! And I don't even like puzzles of objects all that much, but this one was a must. Thank you very much!
