Description: Burley & Co pitcher made by Joseph Green and designed by Edward Kemeys (1847-1907) with elaborate relief of Native American portraits as spout, handle and either side the body, circa 1895. An innovative piece of Western redware pottery it incorporates stylized traditional indigenous motifs such as the Sgraffito bands along the base and rim. Kemeys is known to have sat with numerous figures in the Plains communities and it is very possible that the figures that adorn this object relate to ones sculptured from life. Native Pitcher, c. 1895 redware size is about 5 5/8” high x 9” wide (spout to handle). signed with his mark (see last photo) condition - no chips or cracks or repairs.
