Rose Cabat was born in 1914 in the Bronx. Her work in ceramics began after her husband brought clay home from his job. She was best known for her innovative glazes upon ceramics called "feelies" often in the shape of onions and figs. She was the oldest known actively practicing pottery artist in the U.S. Feelies are described as onion, fig, cucumber and saucer-shape ceramic vases terminating in an upward closed neck.
