This plain Broadmoor bowl
was thrown and has a footed base (click).
The matte green glaze is especially pleasing on
the simple form.

This bowl is less expertly thrown;
squatty with thick walls and an unfooted base. Its
matte
(Peacock) blue glaze was developed by Howard Lewis
while at Niloak.

These oval bowls are press molded
with flat bases. They were hand finished to smooth
over rims and mold seams.

Our group shot shows relative
sizes. The round bowls naturally have greater size
variations than the two oval pieces.

These matte glazes are only from
Broadmoor-Denver as far as we know. All have
ordinary Denver ink stamps. We love their plain
elegance.

Finally our two bowls thrown at
Colorado Springs probably have more collector
appeal. Both are footed and
incised Colo Springs.

The attractive gunmetal bowl must
have relocated during Broadmoor's move to Denver
in 1937. It also has a Denver foil label. (see article)

And Broadmoor's green drip glazes
are not very common and quite beautiful (click). |
