Wow! What a huge project! The more information I find on Canadian pottery & ceramics, the more fascinated I become. A friend collects West German mid-century pottery, specifically lava glazes, and he has pointed out similarities in glazes and treatments to Canadian pottery. It is interesting to research the potters as well as the potteries, the materials, and the glazes. Of course, this means having physical tactile contact with the pieces produced by Canadian potteries. To that end, I have become a 'diverse collector' of Canadian pieces. I'm hoping to have pictures to post in the photo gallery soon. Watch for that.
And when I have more minutes than I do at the moment, I will discuss some of the research I have conducted that has lead me to become a Canadian pottery collector.
