RARE & Very Early Bauer Pottery Bowl believed to be created in the 1920s or earlier on hand thrown wheel? This bowl is in beautiful arts and crafts style in gloss turquoise ring ware.

Width at opening at top: 6 7/8. Width including handles: 7 3/4. The bottom is thickly glazed and is marked, Bauer w three unglazed points inside base ring. There are no cracks, crazing or repairs. When “thumped” the bowl rings clear, no hidden hairlines. Note please examine last photo carefully. Showing imperfection near tip of one of the tab handles. Maybe a imperfection from original glazing? Bauer Pottery is one of the more, if not the most, collected of the California potters. Andy Bauer started off his pottery career in Louisville, KY sometime in the late 1800′s. In 1909 Andy moved to Los Angeles, California and became a part of the growing Arts and Crafts movement with an additional pottery manufacturing facility. In the 1940′s he opened another plant in Atlanta Georgia. They used marks including “Bauer” and “Bauer Los Angeles” in the 20s and earlier and “Bauer Made in USA” or “Bauer USA” on pieces produced in the 1930′s. The company is most well known for the “Ringware” line but all of their pottery is collectible. Only about half of the wares are marked. However, a dealer or collector familiar with Bauers’ work can identify them easily.
