Early Art Deco Bowl w/ Female Nudes by Waylande Gregory

About the Item

Before he became known for his prolific production of brightly-colored ceramic sculptures and ware after World War II, Waylande Gregory created a series of classic Art Deco pieces such as this, which are much rarer. Subtly incised in a sgraffito manner, this bowl features two recumbent female nudes on each long side, and abstracted foliage on the ends. The glaze is a pale rosy tan color. The piece is signed.
