Billy Ray Hussey, Two Early Pieces

Made by Billy in the early 1980s while turning for Boyd Owens, a lion face jug (9.5 in.) and a bear with combed fur and inscribed features (4.5 x 7.25 x 3.25 in.) both of which derive color from their brown clay, both marked "BH Owens."

The Collection of Daisy Wade Bridges of Charlotte, NC

Numerous chips to the mane on the lion face jug; loss to one ear on the bear.
