All the pieces typically have color variations, ripples, glaze drips, air bubbles, glaze skips and rubs along with an unglazed, rough bottom. Selling exactly as pictured. Bybee Pottery was the oldest pottery west of the Allegheny Mountains. Founded in Bybee Kentucky in1809 by Webster Cornelison, the business sold a wide variety of pottery pieces and encouraged customers to tour the building and watch the artisan potters hand forming, throwing, molding and glazing all the items. The pottery was able to mine all the clay they used within a short radius of their building. The Bybee Pottery thrived and survived through six generations of the Cornelison family and asthe new generation found new interests, production and sales dwindled. The pottery closed in 2011.________________________________________________________________________ PLEASE VIEW ALL MY PHOTOS because they serve as part of my item description._________________________________________________________________________ MARKED: "BB."
