If anyone has any information on it, it would be appreciated. It is a triangular piece with the same thing on all 3 sides. Each face of the triangle measures about 10 1/2" x 6". It is not glazed on the inside.

As far as I know there were three versions. All three have blue mountain pottery on them, Yours has "made in Canada" at the bottom, The one I have has the waves logo on it, The other one has "heritage craftsman" at the bottom. It's not a lot but it's all I've got.

I think I was probably thinking of the triangular vase that was made for the 2004 BMPCC convention souvenir. Anyway, I think these salesmans samples are somewhat "rare" or at least HTF. I know I was excited to get it!

As Alan mentions above, it says Heritage Craftsmen Canada below the Blue Moutain Pottery. There is also a symbol that I'm not quite sure what it's supposed to be. I assume it's a "b", but it doesn't quite look like one.
