Beautiful Vintage Leslie Mitchell Studio Pottery Raku 13.5 Vase Texas Artist

Leslie Mitchell got excited about pottery when he was ten years old. His parents bought an old pottery shop in Oak Cliff and the atmosphere and pottery process intrigued him. Mitchell continued his education in pottery at the Arts Magnate School in Dallas and moved to Mineola in 1982. Mitchell is best known for his Raku Flash Pottery, based on an old Japanese method dating back hundreds of years.

This 1984 beautiful large 13 1/2" tall by 11" wide Raku vase is in good condition with no chips or cracks and is marked on the bottom (see photo).
