This 1997 Signed Metcalf Agateware Marbled Clay Studio Pottery Vase is a unique and one-of-a-kind piece originating from the United States. Handmade by Metcalf in 1997, this glossy-finished vase features a multicolored marbled clay pattern with an all-over design. Signed by the artist, this studio art pottery item showcases the artistry and craftsmanship of late 20th-century pottery production. With a mouth opening of approximately 1.5 inches and a height of about 2.25 inches, this signed Agateware vase is a stunning addition to any decorative pottery and glassware collection.

This item appears to me to be in Pre-Owned condition. There is general wear, light scratches, due to use and age. THERE IS A SMALL GLAZE CHIP ON THE TOP OF THE VASE IT APPEARS THAT IS WAS A GLAZE BUBBLE THAT POPPED.  The marbled clay has a clear glaze over top of if giving it a glossy look. There are some imperfection in the glaze. With the vase being hand thrown and the glaze it gives the vase an interesting texture. This is one of the best looking colored marbled agateware vases that I have seen it was a real treat to find. There are no chips or cracks that I could find.
