Large Abstract Studio Pottery Stoneware 'Pagoda Pot' by Alan Ashpool England 70s
About the Item
A stunning three hooped ‘Pagoda Pot’ by Dorset potter Alan Ashpool, with a flared bowl to the top, tiered forms made from a mixture of thrown and slipcast sections joined together, culminating in a bell shaped base. Predominantly in an ecru colourway, followed by a dark grey glaze, then a turquoise/blue glaze, culminating in a stunning bronze manganese glaze. There are also beautiful blue flecks in the ecru finish, which were created in the firing process.
A wonderfully impressive and tactile piece measuring 40cm in height, in very good condition with no chips or cracks. Alan Ashpool backstamp to the base alongside the original address label.
Dorset based potter Alan Ashpool, studied pottery under Heber Matthews (1905-1959), a foremost student of William Staite Murray and teacher of Hans Coper.
During the 1960s Ashpool’s pots were sold in leading design stores such as Heal’s, alongside those of Dame Lucie Rie and featured in numerous exhibitions of the day. He is latterly recognized for his ‘Pagoda Pots’ – tiered forms made from a mixture of thrown and slipcast sections joined together.
