Description
This vase is from a set of ceramics donated to the museum by the federal Department of Mines in the 1920s. An associated label to the vase notes that it is made of a clay body comprised of "4 pottery clays from South Saskatchewan." This set is unique, because the most prominently recorded information about the various vessels relates to their clay body, rather than the maker.
