American Hand-Built Ceramic Tray

About the Item

This late 20th-century American hand-built slab ceramic tray is a striking fusion of artistic craftsmanship and practical utility. Its undulating edges add a touch of organic elegance, drawing the eye to the intricate pattern of repeated unique incised and white glazed squares, meticulously hand-drawn onto the ceramic surface. The entire piece has taken on the pattern of the canvas on which the slab was rolled out, adding an extra layer of visual interest and depth to its design. Perfectly sized for versatility, this tray serves as the ideal catchall for everyday essentials like keys, pocket change, and sunglasses, whether placed on an entry console or bedside nightstand. Its chic aesthetic and functional appeal make it a standout piece in any interior setting, embodying the intersection of artistry and practicality.
