Its wares are distinctive for being produced exclusively by students, graduates, and affiliates of the school, as well as for their predominantly Southern imagery, such as the Southern pines on the vase. Bailey designed this unusually large vase from a wheel-thrown blank (or undecorated) vase by longtime Newcomb potter Joseph Meyer, who also produced the slightly earlier three-handled mug, decorated by an unknown artist. The glossy finish and stylized organic ornamentation of the mug characterize Newcomb pottery until about 1910, after which the matte glaze, naturalistic low-relief carving, and monochromatic palette of the vase typify the pottery’s production.\n","remarks":"AMER-STR_27-T6-1_CLA  Day 1 Cataloguing - Group chat for 2016-38 and y1972-8\r\n"}],"media":[{"id":138171,"uri":"https://media.artmuseum.princeton.edu/iiif/3/collection/INV60292","isprimary":1,"rank":1,"mediatypeid":1,"mediaviewtype":"(not assigned)","restrictions":null,"caption":"Inventory Project"},{"id":138172,"uri":"https://media.artmuseum.princeton.edu/iiif/3/collection/INV60293","isprimary":0,"rank":2,"mediatypeid":1,"mediaviewtype":"(not assigned)","restrictions":null,"caption":"Inventory Project"}],"hasimage":"true","bibliography":[{"boilertext":"Robert Judson Clark, et. al., <EM>The arts and crafts movement in America, 1876-1916: an exhibition organized by the Art Museum, Princeton University and the Art Institute of Chicago</EM>, (Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1972).","citation":"Robert Judson Clark, et. al., <EM>The arts and crafts movement in America, 1876-1916: an exhibition organized by the Art Museum, Princeton University and the Art Institute of Chicago</EM>, (Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1972)., p. 148; no. 211 (illus.)","date":1972,"id":3626,"uri":"https://search.worldcat.org/title/964303911"},{"boilertext":"Allen Rosenbaum and Francis F.
