Robert Maxwell for Earthgender Critter Sculptures, Set of Three
About the Item
Beautiful set of three, 1970s Robert Maxwell stoneware critter sculptures for Earthgender. The set includes: three critters.
Very good condition. See photos. Shows extremely well. Two of the three are signed on underside.
Robert Maxwell has always worked with stoneware. Stoneware is a high-fire ware, second only to porcelain in terms of vitrification. Objects usually emerge from the bisque firing a light tan color but can be turned to rust (red-brown) by reduction (reducing the amount of oxygen in the kiln.) Maxwell generally favors the rust colored body, which he often leaves unglazed when producing his signature style animals. His animals start life just like any other object on the potter’s wheel. The difference is that midway in the process a typical vessel form morphs into an imaginary animal. The open top becomes the mouth of the beast and the base, with the addition of a tail, becomes the rear end. When the basic form is leather hard (usually after 24 hours) hand-carved texture and additions, like horns and tails, are added.
We're currently pairing these critters on Pierre Cardin style nightstand, Milo Baughman blue velvet and chrome chairs and a Mastercraft brass circular coffee table.
