The striking vintage studio pottery ceramic vase features hand-formed jar shaped body, decorated with crystalline glaze in contrasting celadon green and mocha or mushroom brown colors. The large celadon-colored crystals on soft brown background glaze, alternating between large, distinct crystalline formations and soft, finely texture micro crystalline, were grown in a kiln during a very long, controlled firing. The glaze was applied by hand, with skips and pooling near the bottom, emphasizing the hand-crafted nature of the piece. The same glaze was also applied to the inner surfaces of the vase, creating a visually seamless transition when the vase is displayed below the eye level; prominent crystalline formations that are visible on the inside of the vessel are rather unusual and powerful design decision. Each crystalline piece is unique due to the nature of the glaze. The vase was allowed to develop an abundance of distinct, graphic crystals, creating a free-flowing abstract pattern and adding rich texture to the minimally shaped piece. The vase is signed by the artist on the bottom. Sculptural Organic Modern bud vase...

Rare and great folk-art workmanship mantel clock for the collectors and enthousiasts. Over the years we have had the pleasure of owning and selling a number of beautiful Black Forest antiques, but never did we come accross a 19th century Black Forest, Folk Art table clock of this design and subject matter and with such amazing natural organic details. This small church or chapel-like 'clockhouse' is entirely handcrafted out of all kinds of wood, but the most eye-catching is ofcourse the organic root wood. Each piece is like an abstract sculpture and depending on how you see things, they may look like one thing to you, but like something completely different to the next person. Because of all the natural materials that were used this small church has a stunning organic look and feel, but what really takes it to another level is the bell striking mechanism. Every six hours the church bell will ring many times, the door on the left will open at every 'strike', revealing the original monk sculpture inside (as shown in the attached video in this listing). With the hand carved crucifix on the right side being made of the same color and materials, it totally blends in with the entire organic design of this Christian antique. Over the many decades this good size and rare antique clock has also grown the most amazing patina and with the natural beauty and unique artisanship that it radiates people will want to stop and study its uniqueness. This work-of-art-table-clock comes with a single day clock mechanism, protected from dust by the original 'back door'. It runs and strikes perfectly and comes with an antique key for winding it. Apart from a few minor imperfections, this rare antique is in excellent condition, which makes it perfect for lovers of unique and rare clocks in general and for Black Forest and Christian Folk Art collectors in particular. Mind you, our fair price for this sizable antique cuckoo clock...
