Located in Studio City, CA

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...

Questions About Robert Maxwell Serveware, Ceramics, Silver and Glass
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 13, 2024
    To identify Robert Maxwell pottery, search the bottom for a maker's mark. The American ceramicist incised his signature into the bases of many of his pieces. However, not all Robert Maxwell pottery is marked. As a result, you may also want to look at images of Maxwell's work to become familiar with his style. Maxwell was particularly well-known for using rutile glaze, which lent his pottery a speckled, mottled appearance. However, he experimented with other glazing techniques and even left some items unglazed. Because there is so much variation in his pottery, you may wish to have a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer help you with the identification process. Explore a collection of Robert Maxwell pottery on 1stDibs.
