The then relative obscurity of the Peters and a~ ane po~tery, with their lowish prices, encouraged Jeff t o b eg1n collecting these lines. Jeff:ey began to correspond with Norris Schneider in 1981. This a~az1ngly foresighted gentleman has, as we all know, almost single-handed preserved the legacy of the Zanesville area potteries. Hi: was an endeavor for which we are all grateful and be~ause of ~hich we ~r: blessed wi!h extensive knowledge of a unique American tradition. He provided Jeff with many articles price lists and finally a copy of the only known Peters and Re~d catalog. Attending the Pottery Lovers' Festival, and meeting Alice and Lewis Bettinger, advanced the P and R "habit". The Bettingers greatly encouraged Jeffrey, and Alice and Lewis spent many hours sitting and discussing pottery with Jeff. The clincher was a stay at the Bettinger's home, and exploring the famous "basement". During that same summer we accumulated additional information with a lengthy visit to the library of the Ohio Historical Society in Columbus, Ohio. The search became a quest, and resulted in Jeff's collection of Peters and Reed and Zane currently containing almost three hundred pieces. We had within just a few years met many wonderful fellow pottery collectors with whom we shared our love; exchanging ideas, buying and selling pieces, and enjoying the special camaraderie that "fanatics" develop . Nance Darrow is one of these special people, and she was soon scouting and finding pieces for Jeff.

We certainly hope that our fellow pottery collectors and readers understand from our tone and comments that our goal for this book is to open the door to further exploration of the Peters and Reed/Zane experience. It is our fervent wish that others will come forward to provide additional information and insights into this historical perspective, be they collectors or simply interested friends with additional knowledge to contribute.

A THE PETERS AND REED POTTERY COMPANY THE ZANE POTTERY COMPANY THE HISTORY th By e middle of the 189O's , many potteries in Ohio such as R~okwo~d, Weller and Roseville had become well established financially successful and nationally prominent Th • ' encouraged ma~y other potters, most of whom had.war:~~ ~~~c~::se larger_potteries , to go out on their own and establish their own potteries. ~oh~~ - Pet:~s and Adam Reed were working for the Weller Pottery in u nam. 7n Weller appeared to be concentrating more on his art potte~y lines, Peters and Reed decided to go into a business partners~ip together and formed the Peters and Reed Pottery Company in about 1897. They hoped to fill the apparent void in pottery_production that Weller would leave by discontinuing the production of flower pots. Legend has it that Peters and Reed found a suitable lot in South Zanesville'. fil1 7d their wheelbarrows with tools, pushed them down Maysville Pike and built their first pottery shop. History, howe~er, tell~ us that they in fact went into operation in 1897 by renting the Linden Avenue pottery built by the Clark Stoneware C~mpany some six years before in South Zanesville, Ohio, a small village south of Zanesville. Their resources being fairly limited, they started production limited to flower pots of red earthenware, the product they had envisioned would be in demand as Weller's production diminished. Although the company is reported to have done well from its start, Peters and Reed did not have quite the demand they anticipated for their products as Weller proceeded in 1899 to purchase the old American Encaustic Tiling Company plant on Marietta Street and resumed producing flower pots, cooking utensils and other similar items. Norris Schneider reported that Frank Ferrel recalled that Peters and Reed found operating a business did not bring the instant wealth they had imagined. Ferrel later heard them discuss their optimistic plans to have a turkey for their first Christmas as entrepreneurs, then changing their choice to beef, then chicken, and finally eating white bacon. However, they persisted and kept the pottery going, and soon added the production of jardinieres which they decorated with cold colors, or house paint, to their line. Peters and Reed displayed their imaginative talents as businessmen from the onset of their business. There was no transportation available for those of their workers who lived in Zanesville to get to the plant in South Zanesville when they started their business. So they bought an old "bandwagon'' and proceeded to provide two way 5 transportation to "Southtown" for these workers. They al wagon to haul goods to the railroad stations for So Shipment .

Illustrations of the plant wer/ included with the comment that back of the plant was an inexhaustible deposit of the best clay, obviously containing the red clay which became their "trademark" for over twenty years. THE GREAT STANDARD GLAZE MYSTERY-----SOLVED???? For many years we collectors of Peters and Reed have been faced with a dilemma as to who truly manufactured the beautiful high glazed, brown, sprig decorated Standard Glaze pottery attributed to Peters and Reed. These authors currently are not aware of any authentic documentation (no original articles, no ads, no pictures nor any catalogs) which supports the premise that Peters and Reed made the brownware. However, numerous knowledgeable individuals within the pottery "circles" have reported discussions with "old timers" who worked in the various potterieS, or had knowledge of Peters and Reed, who have confirmed Peters and Reed as the manufacturers of the Standard Glaze.

Where the movement in the early days is referred to as 'Studio Pottery' due to its focus on functional vessels and 'pots', the name of 'Studio Ceramics' now refers broadly to include work by artists and designers that may be more conceptual or sculptural rather than functional. As an artistic movement Studio Ceramics has a peculiar history. It is a history that includes changes in artistic and public taste, developments in art historical terms and small and very individual stories of artists and potters.

N the first edition of this work we thought it necessary to narrate at length how our curiosity and interest were, on our arrival in England, aroused by the discovery of two quaint pieces of Salt-glaze, seen one day on the window-sill of an old cottage in Staffordshire. How we devoted our leisure to the research of speci- mens of the various kinds of pottery made in the district, feeling, at every fresh find, our admiration increase for a ware which, to our astonishment, had so far escaped the notice of the Continental collectors, and how it was that we were drawn into sketching and etching some curious pieces of our collection for our own pleasure, and the gratification of some friends at a distance ; a labour which ultimately led to the publication of the present work. These con- 217006 ; VI PREFACE.

They and their fathers before them have grown up with, lived with, made and developed the English pottery trade. The pot-bank and the shard ruck are, to them, as familiar, and as full of old associations, as the cowshed to the countryman or the nets along the links to the fishing popula- tion. To them any history of the development of their industry will be welcome. But potting is such a specialized industry, so confined to and associated with North Stafford- shire, that it is possible to study very clearly in the case of this industry the cause of its localization, and its gradual change from a home to a factory business.

  • Pottery Handbook for Primary Schools by Stephen Bruce 2015
    CHALICE ARTS UK LTD POTTERY HANDBOOK FOR PRIMARY SCHOOLS STEPHEN BRUCE 1 © Copyright Chalice Arts UK Limited www.chaliceartsuk.co.uk 2015 CONTENTS INTROUCTION MATERIALS AND TOOLS BISCUIT AND GLAZE FIRING PINCH POTS COILING SLAB BUILDINGS SIMPLE MOULDS MODELLING AND JEWELLERY TECHNIQUES FOR DECORATING CLAY HEALTH AND SAFETY GLOSSARY OF TERMS APPENDIX: Science Work Ideas for Pottery Projects with Children 2 INTRODUCTION Clay is a wonderful natural resource. It can be found in many parts of the world and therefore many cultures have developed rich traditions of pottery making. Clay is a readily accessible medium for all ages of primary school children to work with. Children engage and enjoy its properties, being able to push their fingers into it, to shape, squeeze and mould it, to join, model and build with it. To produce pottery work a kiln is desirable so that work can be fired and glazed. However, there are self-hardening clays available which provide a good substitute to natural clay and harden without firing. Schools without a kiln might approach a local secondary school to see if they would be prepared to fire their work or a company like Chalice Arts UK who offer a local firing service. This booklet is designed to introduce the main techniques of working with clay which can be developed with children of primary age. Co-ordinators – understanding this paragraph is vital to raising standards of art – ensuring continuity and progression. Using clay can contribute to both Art and Technology within the National Curriculum. The use of clay can be supported with design drawings or other pieces of artwork which lead on to working with clay.
