Guido Gambone"Monumental Chalice" Rare Ceramic Turquoise Green Red Graphic Signed 1950
1950
About the Item
“Monumental Chalice” is a stunning rare monumental ceramic chalice by the world re-known Italian potter Guido Gambone. The shape is light and delicate with a comfortable weight. Turquoise and green glaze the piece in a lovely mixture of colors with red iron oxide design to the lip, the foot and the surrounding bowl of the chalice. Made in 1950 it has no cracks, chips or repairs. You could say the geometric design on this piece, which Gambone created nearly 60 years ago, is current once again. The glaze is pristine and the piece looks as though it has just emerged from the kiln.
The surface design is beautifully integrated with the shape of the chalice and gives a striking contrast to the predominate glaze colors. It is correctly signed on the bottom "Gambone Italy" and with the donkey symbol. Just a fabulous piece!! This is an excellent example of Gambone's iconic work, in fabulous condition. This chalice would look so great in a mid-century modern decor, in a Hollywood Regency room, in a Paris apartment or in a charming townhouse.

- John Glick Plum Tree Pottery , Stoneware Mug, Deep Earth Tones, GlazedLocated in Detroit, MI“Untitled” ceramic, is an example of the kind of work by which John Glick became so famous. He was seduced by the effects of the reduction kiln, which decreased the levels of oxygen during firing, inducing the flame to pull oxygen out of the clay and glazes changing the colors of the glazes depending on their iron and copper content. In this way he achieved the rich gradients of ochre and umber and variations in stippling and opacity. This piece is signed on the bottom and can be found on page 129, plate #236 in “John Glick: A Legacy in Clay.” John was an American Abstract Expressionist ceramicist born in Detroit, MI. Though open to artistic experimentation, Glick was most influenced by the styles and aesthetics of Asian pottery—an inspiration that shows in his use of decorative patterns and glaze choices. He has said that he is attracted to simplicity, as well as complexity: my work continually reflects my re-examination that these two poles can coexist… or not, in a given series. Glick also took influences from master potters of Japan, notably Shoji Hamada and Kanjrio Kawai, blending their gestural embellishments of simple forms with attitudes of Abstract Expressionism. He was particularly drown to the work of Helen Frankenthaler whose soak-stain style resonated with Glick’s multi-layered glaze surfaces, which juxtaposed veils of atmospheric color with gestural marks and pattern. He spent countless hours developing and making his own tools in order to achieve previously unseen results in his work with clay and glaze. Glick’s “Plum Tree Pottery...Category
