Dieter Crumbiegel graduated from high school in 1957 at the traditional language Burggymnasium in Essen. He then studied painting from 1957 to 1961 at the State University of Fine Arts in Kassel with Fritz Winter and Marie-Louise von Rogister, ceramics with Walter Popp, art theory and art sociology with Stephan Hirzel and Georg Hoeltje, and art history and art education with Ernst Röttger. During the 1958/1959 academic year he received a holiday scholarship from the Max Beckmann Society and spent some time in the Liliamor house with its founder Lilly von Mallinckrodt-Schnitzler in Murnau. In 1959 he also received a scholarship from the German National Academic Foundation. Crumbiegel completed his studies in 1961 with the first state examination.
After the 2nd state examination in 1964, Crumbiegel worked with Robert Sturm at the educational institute in Fulda as a lecturer for the training of art and craft teachers at general schools with a training focus on the construction of vascular ceramics. In 1971 he took over the class for sculpture and architectural ceramics at the State Technical School for Ceramic Design in Höhr- Grenzhausen. From 1979 to 2001 he was a professor at the Niederrhein University of Applied Sciences in Krefeld in the design department, studying ceramics/porcelain/glass design. In 1979, Crumbiegel was appointed a member of the Académie Internationale de la Ceramique (AIC) / International Academy of liamorCeramic in Geneva. The German members of the AIC joined together in 1983/1984 to form Group 83 - German Ceramicists,[1] of which he himself became a member in 1986.
Crumbiegel founded the “Krefeld School for Ceramics/Design”[2] as a continuation of the Kassel School for Ceramics run by his teacher Walter Popp, from which artists and designers such as Frank Louis emerged. In 1983 he was appointed supervisor at Helwan University in Giza/Cairo. From 1971 he gave lectures on new trends in ceramic art at the Hetjens Museum in Düsseldorf.
Between 1969 and 1978 he was a member of various award juries, such as the jury for the Richard...

I.C.S. Art Deco Majolica Vase, Italy 1927-1940
Located in Clifton Springs, NY
Rare vintage ceramic vase features streamlined cylinder form with slightly flared out rim and graphic decor in off white, teal, black, and yellow palette. The main motif of abstract flowers on a branch, descending from a triangular structure, hand painted in monochromatic black glaze, is juxtaposed with the ombre off white and teal background and an abstracted flock of birds in shades of yellow. The sophisticated Art Deco style flowering branch, with contrasting, clearly defined, angular outline, is softened with rounded, Folk Art or Naive Art style, almost cloud-like bird motifs, asymmetrically placed on one side of the branch. The decor repeats on front and back sides of the vase with slight variations in colors and placements that are consistent with hand-painted nature of the piece. The vase retains obvious hand-formed concentric ridges throughout the whole body that add textural element to the piece and allow for slight pooling of the glazes. The bottom is concave and glazed in off-white, with the unglazed foot, showing pinkish beige clay; it is not a glaze defect, as it was left unglazed intentionally when the vase was placed in the kiln for firing.
The vase is signed on the bottom with "Italy I.C.S" and Industria Ceramica Salernitana company's fish mark. It is in good vintage condition with age-appropriate small losses on glaze of the rim and bottom that do not detract from the quality and artistic expression of the vase and can be repaired professionally; please see pictures.
I.C.S. was founded in 1927 by Berlin-born Moses Malamerson in Vietri Sul Mar on Amalfi coast in Italy. I.C.S quickly gained recognition by participating in multiple major European and American expositions and art competitions available, attracting many artists that were looking to escape the economic depression and political upheaval of 1930s. I.C.S. can claim the honor of having employed all the famous artists of the German (Tedesco) Period, including Studemann, Irene Kowalski, Hannasch, Richard Dolker...

Douglas Ferguson for Pigeon Forge Crater Glaze Bowl #5, American Studio Pottery
Located in Clifton Springs, NY
Vintage hand-thrown bowl features complex Crater glaze in off-white and espresso brown colors. Minimal color palette and streamlined shape of the piece allow the textured glaze with variations from semi-matte to high gloss to take the spotlight; asymmetrical biomorphic shape adds hand-crafted, Organic Modern mood to the bowl's design.
The bowl is signed on the bottom with "Pigeon Forge Pottery Tenn".
The Crater glaze has become one of the most recognizable glazes made by the Pigeon Forge Pottery. Often commonly referred to as "Volcanic" or "Lava" glaze, the Crater glaze was developed and made in several colors. We are offering a vase and 4 more bowls in different shapes by Douglas Ferguson, done in variations of Crater glazes, in separate listings.
Douglas Ferguson (1912-1999) was an established Tennessee pottery artist; he received a degree in Art Design Studies from Mars Hill College and worked in the Ceramic Research Laboratory for the Tennessee Valley Authority in Norris, TN, from 1935 to 1947, where he experimented with local clays. In 1946 he started Pigeon Forge Pottery in an old tobacco barn with his wife Ruth and Ernest Wilson, his colleague at the Ceramic Research Laboratory. He formulated many of his own glazes, including crystalline and Crater glaze.
In 1957 he created the Clingman Dome tea set, named by Ferguson for the highest peak in the Great Smoky Mountains, which the state of Tennessee presented to Queen Elizabeth. Ferguson became a member of the Southern Highland Craft Guild in 1948 and remained active until 1998, receiving Life Membership in 1991. He earned two awards from the Tennessee Arts and Crafts Festival in Nashville, received the Rotary Certificate of Distinguished Service, and was featured in books on Appalachian craftspeople by Bernice Stevens, Edward Dupuy and Helen Bullard. In the fall of 1952, Ferguson attended a ceramics symposium by international artists at Black Mountain College; in 1963 he participated in the American Craft Council and the Ceramic National exhibitions. In the 1970s - 80s Ferguson created a fountain with traditional Appalachian quilting...
