Featured Artifact of the Week

Vase

Ornamental vase from the Atwood-Millett Collection. It features an elaborate and textured floral design, with blue white, pink, and gold coloring. “Hand painted” is written on the bottom. A single white feather hides inside. There are several other ornamental ceramics in the collection. This and the majority of the Atwood Collection was donated in 2008 by Deborah Stein-Sharpe after the death of the last of the family in Westford, artist William Atwood Millett (1922-2007).

For more information on the family see the Atwood Family Exhibit
