Ben Owen III Vase Showcases Seagrove Pottery Tradition
This exceptional square‑shouldered melon egg vase by renowned Seagrove potter Ben Owen III reflects both artistic mastery and a celebrated North Carolina pottery legacy. The piece is finished in Chinese Red, a distinctive glaze developed by Ben Owen III’s father, Ben Wade Owen, Jr., and revered for its depth and richness.
While Ben Owen III comes from a distinguished lineage of master potters, his own talent and innovative approach have earned him national recognition. His work is highly sought after, and he has been honored as one of Southern Living’s Heroes of the New South. This vase represents a rare opportunity to acquire a piece that embodies tradition, craftsmanship, and contemporary excellence in American pottery.
