Elchinger Vases and Vessels

Elchinger took over his family's ceramic business in 1936, developed and modernized the plant and built a second in 1975 on another site. He installed the first six-pass continuous electric furnace in France and thus industrialized a faience production. He especially strengthened the manufacture of the ceramic saturator becoming the leading manufacturer in Europe. Driven by the craze for Vallauris ceramics, the Alsatian manufacturer gained strong notoriety with its productions of the years 1950–60. These achievements, vases and pitchers with clean forms, were distinguished from the exuberant achievements of the workshops of the South.

Modernist Ceramic Vase by C.H. Brannam, Sculptural Ribbed Form, Turquoise, 1950s

By Charles Brannam

Located in Glasgow, GB

A mid-century English ceramic vase by C.H. Brannam of Barnstaple, Devon, featuring a sculptural Modernist form finished in a luminous turquoise glaze. Dating to the mid-20th century, this earthenware vase combines bold, rounded proportions with restrained architectural detailing. The generously proportioned, bulbous body is encircled by elongated, raised vertical lobes, creating a rhythmic, almost organic surface. These curved sections rise towards a cylindrical neck with a subtly flared, rolled rim, while a circular foot provides a balanced foundation. The glossy turquoise glaze has a soft, mineral-like quality, with delicate tonal variations accentuating the relief decoration. Established in the mid-19th century, Brannam became an important name in British art pottery under Charles Hubert Brannam. Associated with the wider tradition of Devon and Torquay pottery...
