Cowan Pottery Museum Associates
Dedicated to raising awareness of the ceramic art work of R. Guy Cowan and his Cowan Pottery Studio in northeastern Ohio (1912-1931), this site provides a nice snapshot of his life and work. In the photo gallery, you can view dozens of Cowan designs by shape (candlesticks, bowls, decanters, lamps, and vases etc.) and by glaze (copper, marigold, apple blossom pink, antique green, Egyptian blue, etc.). There's also a nice section on his ceramic sculptures, well worth a look.
