J.C. Seagraves began experimenting with pottery in 1948 and set up a shop on Rte. 222 at Breiningsville in 1951. His preference was for making bowls and plates. He produced colorful glazes through the use of copper oxide. He combined the clean-cut modern 1950s style of pottery with the more traditional type to create his own unique style. (Richard L.T. Orth)
