Description
This glaze, "Antique Blue" was significant for Blue Mountain Pottery. A vase with the same glaze received a merit award from the National Design Council in 1967. This vase was donated to the ROM by Robert Blair, the last owner and president of Blue Mountain Pottery. It was part of a set of 11 pieces that had formerly been shown in the company's storefront, as a way of celebrating and documenting the history of artistic creativity in the company.
