Definition
of Seconds:
The
term "seconds" applies to items that do not meet the standard
of quality for regular retail sale. Reasons for a piece being
deemed a second may include multiple glaze pinholes, glaze skips,
uneven glazing or the pottery being off-round. Most of the pieces
are close to being "firsts," the difference sometimes being something
as small as an extra pinhole or two, often in a place that is
unnoticeable. |
