Description
Exceptionally Rare, Mint J.B. Owens Renaissance ( Oil Finish Utopian ) 12.5” Vase Up for auction is this Renaissance (aka Oil Finish Utopian). It is the creation of William Long of Lonhuda Fame ~1899/1900. It is artist signed by Delores Harvey and is in the VERY RARE mold # 1117. This mold and all other existing molds were destroyed in the 1902 Owens factory fire. It is in excellent condition with no repairs of defect. I am deaccessioning select pottery from my Owens collection as it is a duplicate piece of pottery. So, it is time to set it free. NOTE: This is one of the only two pieces of this mold that I’ve seen in 35+ years. I use plenty of bubble wrap and Styrofoam peanuts during packing to ensure each item arrives in the same condition I shipped it. I also require each item be fully insured by the USPS mail service. See other auctions for additional pottery. Contact me if you have any questions on this piece of pottery.
