Ben Owen Sr. began potting at Jugtown Pottery in 1923. In 1928, Owen was recognized as a Master Potter, and in 1932 he became the sole potter at Jugtown Pottery.
In 1959, Ben Owen Sr. decided to spend the last part of his career by establishing his own pottery called the Old Plank Road Pottery. From 1960 to 1972 the round stamp, Ben Owen Master Potter, was used to mark his work made at the Plank Road Pottery. less
