Exceptional Honey Colored Vase
Glazed earthenware; ht. 12, dia. 4.5 in.
Sam Haile was born in London in 1909 and studied at the Clapham School of Art and at the Royal College of Art under William Staite Murray. After a brief spell as pottery instructor at Liecester College of Art he returned to London to teach, sharing a workshop with Margaret Rey. In 1938 he married Marianne de Trey and the following year moved to the USA where he taught at the New York State College of Ceramics and the College of Architecture, University of Michigan.

Haile's slip decoration, brushed and trailed, and sense of form were exceptional.
