Not on view

The Weller Pottery hired the French decorator Jacques Sicard to produce a new line of art pottery in 1902. It is distinguished by its elaborate decoration, usually painted on the surface in organic patterns, and its highly distinctive and unusual iridescent glazes. In this example, the organic quality is achieved by the molded form, the ears and husks of corn encompass the entire surface of the vase.
