"Bird's Nest Bowl", Rare Dish in Black, Gold and White by Waylande Gregory
About the Item
This rare dish or low bowl, with its bird's nest embracing several blue eggs, nestled in a tree boldly expressed in black, gold and white, was made by Waylande Gregory, the great ceramicist and sculptor before and after World War II. Gregory was prodigious and indefatigable, producing a wide range of sculptures and wares in ceramic during his years working with Lorado Taft and later for WPA projects, institutions and public parks. Early in his career, Gregory worked for the Cowan pottery firm near Cleveland, but later he moved to the New York metropolitan area, setting up a studio at his home in New Jersey. A major retrospective of Gregory's work was recently organized by the University of Richmond's Museums. The dish is signed on the bottom.
