Episode 1 - University of North Dakota (UND) Pottery
Welcome to the first episode of Pottery Conversations! In this episode, we talk with University of North Dakota Pottery (UND) expert Tony Olsen about UND pottery history, collectability, valuations, and periods of production. Plus, recommendations from Tony for new art pottery collectors.
If you are unfamiliar, UND pottery began as a way to showcase the amazing, high quality clays coming out of North Dakota. While the first pieces were made nearly 100 years ago, University of North Dakota School of Mines pottery remains highly valued and very collectible. UND pottery has a hand-made quality and often displays earthy tones, such as greens, blues, and browns.
