Broken pottery restoration

Broken handle on Joseph Rushton Collection

The following photos show part of a collection of East Texas stoneware.

Included are pieces made by a well known potter named Joseph Rushton approximately during 1870-1900. Due to the clay source,they were made in Brockfield, which is in Rusk county Texas. Some pots will have missing handles and benefit from an invisible restoration as you can see from the photos. Although full invisible restoration is available for chips as well, most will leave a chip or two for character so as to not take away from what the piece has been through.
