Prehistoric Native American potters first made pottery in the region, followed by eighteenth-century English and German settlers.\u003cbr\u003eMany generations of potters followed in their footsteps, and today hundreds of potters and ceramics artists turn out ware in every part of the state. In the town of Seagrove, there's a whole museum and educational center dedicated to North Carolina pottery production.\u003cbr\u003eMany private and public collections exist. Buyers seek it out at auctions, antique shops, kiln openings, festivals, and studio sales. This book is chock-full of images representing all periods and styles of pottery made in the state, including many published for the first time.\u003cbr\u003eReaders new to the topic, as well as expert collectors, historians, and potters, will find satisfaction in this richly illustrated and descriptively written volume.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephen Compton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1634996100\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781634996105\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e America Through Time\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/30\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.74lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.30w x 0.40d","brand":"Stephen Compton","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48930110177535,"sku":"9781634996105","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/north-carolina-potteries-through-time-stephen-compton-9781634996105","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
