King's Pottery Beige Alkaline Two Handles Vase Dated 2000 First Kiln Open
Decorated with something that has the texture but not the usual color of a traditional salt glaze orange peel texture, so I am assuming a combination of a normal glaze and salt (or maybe that's just how salt interacts with this clay, dunno). Also decorated with some incised rings.
Signed and dated on the bottom "Kings Pottery 2000 First Kiln Open". Their first pottery was opened in 1987 but they did open a second studio on HWY 75 at some point, perhaps it was this year? Or perhaps that just means the first kiln opening of the year for 2000.
Terry and Anna King are lifelong residents of Seagrove, NC who started in pottery working for the legendary Dot and Walter Auman. They are now well known themselves. Terry and Anna King are the parents of Crystal King who is well known for her animal figurals. King's Pottery was started by Terry, Anna and Crystal in 1987.
