Sculptural 1975 Signed Stoneware Studio Pottery Box ochre but how not to wantThe fit between the top and bottom on this 1975 studio pottery stoneware box is not 100% perfect, but it is pretty close, and I really love how the shape of the lid, with two "arms" of sorts, interlocks with the lower half. I love the glazing too, almost evoking a face, but feeling brutalist, too, and with unglazed triangle across the front aligning top and bottom. Found in Vermont, and signed, but I can't quite discern the signature. 3 3 8" t x 3 1
