Richard, the son of Harry Kale is a well-known pottery family from Catawba Valley North Carolina. Richard made a lot more face jugs that I have seen and I found it unusual to see a pitcher from Richard. I do find it lovely that I have listed a Harry and Richard pitcher both from 1991. Dimensions: ~5.5” height ~4.5” width ~4.25” opening Condition: Free of chips. Color is vibrant. Please see the photos of the handle. There is a small crack from the handle to the pitcher. It is not loose, but there is a crack. I took photos of both sides to show as best as I could. Please review all other photos as they show every angle of the pitcher.
