Pewabic Pottery is a significant manifestation of the international Arts and Crafts movement in Michigan. As art historian Martin Eidelberg points out in his introductory essay, it was also a striking example of the coterie of talented American female ceramists who broke with traditional norms, seeking to excel both as artists and as entrepreneurs. This chronological history of Pewabic work--the most extensive study published to date--focuses primarily on the pottery as operated by Perry and Caulkins, and then up through the beginning of the Pewabic Society Inc. in 1979. Authored by the most recognized scholar on Pewabic Pottery, this study relies heavily on archival sources to achieve a comprehensive history of one of Michigan's most interesting art studios.
