Another Possible Example of Paul Revere Pottery Found in the Greater Boston Area

I think the saying goes, “Good things happen in threes!” Nonetheless, I have never actively pursued pottery before that was made at the Saturday Evening Girls’ Paul Revere Pottery in Boston, although today I came across this small Asian inspired vase or jardiniere with a blue glaze, which I believe could be circa 1920s, and I think originally had a P.R.P. paper label adhered to the base. If this object is what I suspect it to be, then this makes three examples of Paul Revere Pottery that I have found in New England in the last month, whereas this particular example is very skillfully thrown and refined.

The reasons that I feel that this object may have been made at the Paul Revere Pottery include the shape of the object, the color of the blue glaze, the color/type of the clay, the concaved base and the three white marks from the kiln furniture on the base which is seen on most examples of Paul Revere Pottery.

Furthermore, this is also a shape of vase or jardiniere that was manufactured by other Massachusetts art potters in the early 1900s, including the Merrimac Pottery Company in Newburyport, William J. Walley's Pottery in West Sterling and the William Grueby Faience Company in Boston, among other companies located elsewhere in New England and America.

Interestingly, this is also a shape that was produced circa 1920s-1950s by some of the art potteries located in North Carolina, where some of that production was inspired after ancient Asian pottery.

For more information about the history of the Paul Revere Pottery, see a story that I posted to this website yesterday: http://www.earlyamericanceramics.com/2023/08/a-blue-glazed-vase-made-at-segs-paul.html?m=1

With all that said - thoughts? Is this Paul Revere Pottery? Yes? No? Not sure?

Note: After further examination - this may have also been made at Peters and Reed in Ohio, although from the same time period.
