Abstract:
Jacque Busbee and his wife Juliana began a pottery industry in Moore County. Their emphasis was on the state's folk and historic pottery. In May 1917, they began Jugtown a name given to their workshop. The Busbee's researched and sought examples of pottery to inform their business which recreated and replicated these pieces and even employed potters with a strong lineage in the art.
