Don Reitz
Donald Lester Reitz was an American ceramic artist, recognized for inspiring a reemergence of salt glaze pottery in the United States. He was a teacher of ceramic art at the University of Wisconsin–Madison from 1962–88. During this period, he adapted the pottery firing technique developed in the Middle Ages, which involved pouring salt into the pottery kiln during the firing stage. The method was taught in European ceramic art schools, but largely unknown in United States studio pottery.

Large Mid-Century Modern Stoneware Bottle Vase in the Style of Peter Voulkos
Located in Studio City, CA
A wonderful, richly multi-glazed and textured, heavy Mid-Century Modern large stoneware bottle vase. Expertly crafted. The piece is very reminiscent of some of Peter Voulkos' early hand-painted works with traditional shaped vessels, though we believe it was made by a different artist.
From a Los Angeles estate that featured many well know Mid-Century and California artists' pottery pieces, artworks, and furniture.
Marked "BOT 2" on the underside.
Would be a great addition to any Mid-Century pottery/ceramics collection...
