This expressive studio art pottery lidded jar was handmade by Gordon Batten of Riverwood Pottery, a well-regarded North Carolina studio known for organic forms and richly layered glazes. The rounded jar features an earthy palette of moss green, slate gray, rust, and soft celadon tones, accented with abstract slip decoration and fluid line work that gives the surface a sense of motion and depth.
Measuring approximately 7.5 inches in diameter and 10 inches tall, the jar has a substantial, balanced presence. The lid fits cleanly within the rim and echoes the vessel’s form and glaze, making the piece visually cohesive from every angle. The underside is clearly signed by the artist, and original studio ephemera is included, further confirming its provenance and studio origin.
This piece reflects the hallmarks of late 20th-century American studio pottery—individual expression, natural textures, and a strong connection between form and surface—making it an excellent addition to a serious ceramics collection or a refined decorative interior.
