Ceramic Jars

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...
