Robert Maxwell Signed Large Mid-Century Modern California Studio Pottery Charger
About the Item
A wonderfully made and beautifully designed Mid-Century Modern pottery charger by famed California potter and sculptor Robert Maxwell.
Maxwell co-founded Earthgender pottery with fellow potter David Cressey.
This charger/platter was made at his Venice beach, California Pottery studio in the early 1960s as verified by his wife. It is a very rare piece in respect to design, pattern, and sheer Size/heft (it is a very heavy work). We have not seen another quite like it.
Apparently, he only made a few with some filled with melted glass to create the design/pattern.
Signed by Maxwell on the base.
Would clearly be a great addition to any mid-century pottery/ceramics collection or fantastic stand-alone accent piece in about any setting, modern or otherwise.
Dimensions: 1.5" high, 16.25" wide, 16.25" deep.
