The heft and feel are extraordinary.  Its flattened form likely dates to the early 1970s and measures just shy of 15\" tall.  Glazed in contrasting brown and tan tones with a single dark vertical stripe on either side.  The charming irregularities characteristic of much of studio pottery make this a true one-of-a-kind.
