Distinctly unique form by Roger, although there are a handful examples that do exist that are similar. Albeit fairly simple in form to cut out the features as greenware from the face is level of skill that Roger would have to master with practice. Roger, becoming blind as a teenager, picked up the pottery itch via his brother-in-law Glenn Bolick. Glenn was part of the multi-generational family of Owens pottery family of the Seagrove area. Roger has the moniker of the blind potter of the Catawba Valley, but that didn't impact his skills in making pots. A number of years back Roger retired from pottery due to health concerns. A simply amazing man to know and even meet. He is also a master guitar player. The pot is signed Hicks and 10-09 on the base. 4"H x 3.25"D.

ALL POTTERY IS IN EXCELLENT AS FIRED CONDITION UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED IN THE DESCRIPTION.
