Wood-Fired Ceramic Vase by Paul Chaleff
Located in Atlanta, GA
A stoneware vase by Paul Chaleff (1947-) made in 1984. Chaleff is known for his wood fired ceramic vessel without glaze or sometimes natural ash glaze. The vase on offer is of a highly geometrical form with handcut multifaceted lower body that rises and morphs into a rounded upper body with two hand-molded ears above the shoulder. The surface shows nice firing color variations due to the iron oxidation in the kiln and also carved lines left intentionally by the artist. It is marked with the artist's incised signature and date 84. This piece has a very strong Japanese wabi-sabi appeal which is the aesthetic influence of the artist's work and makes a visually arresting center piece for any interior. "Paul Chaleff is known for his large-scale wood fired ceramic sculptures and vessels. He also created a large body of wheel thrown functional vessels. His vessels are strongly influenced by Japanese pottery, especially the work of one of Japan’s National Living Treasures, Takeshi Nakazato. Chaleff was one of the first American potters using a Japanese style Anagama kiln and became a leader in the introduction of this form of wood-burning kiln. In 1989, he began a regular collaboration with the British sculptor Sir Anthony Caro. Over a period of thirteen years, they created nearly 50 works, both figurative and abstract. Caro’s sculpture has had direct influence on Chaleff’s work as has the sculpture of Isamu Noguchi, and the ceramics of John Mason...

Set of Three Provincial Chinese Wine Jugs, circa 1900
Located in Chicago, IL
These early 20th century ceramic jars from China's Shandong province were formed with a bottle-neck shape meant for storing vinegar or rice wine. We suspect these jars were created to store wine for commercial sale, and were likely stoppered with a cork or wax seal. Left unglazed, the jugs are decorated only the irregular, organic smoke patterns created during the firing process. We love the neutral color story told by this set of vessels...

Large Vase French Ceramist J. Suzor geometric pattern, Craqueling GlazeLongwy
Located in Paris, France
Jacqueline SUZOR de PANAFIEU (1903 – 1981) Numbered Large vase signed J. Suzor, circa 1970 geometric pattern, cracked ceramic, creation Desert Occidental, collection "Santal" "Handmade in France, Faiencerie des Recollets". White-grey craqueling glazed, very beautiful pattern . Superb vintage condition, no repairs. Born in 1903 in Paris, Jacqueline studied drawing as a teenager. From the 1920s to 1935, she began a promising career as a painter. From Kiki to J.S. de PANA-FIEU, through Suzor, JSP or Pana (more than 6 signatures for one artist!), Jacqueline Suzor de Panafieu assumed several personalities during her life as a Parisian artist. Her signatures bear witness to a woman's life and career made up of ruptures and twists. Curious about everything and everyone, Jacqueline Suzor surrounded herself with artists, writers, filmmakers, actors and photographers who met at her table. She also met Dali and Giacometti. Jacqueline freed herself from the cubist influence, she defined herself in the 1930s, an aesthetic that came from her passion for the Far East, developed through contact with the objects brought back by her ambassador father during his distant travels. Two artists inspired her during the period from 1957 to 1962: Bernard Buffet and Georges Matthieu. From one she borrowed the black lines; from the other she owed her passage to abstraction. Her numerous exhibitions in the 1970s brought her recognition in France and abroad. It was also a time of commitment within the Union of Women Painters and Sculptors (UFPS), of which she became vice-president. MAIN EXHIBITIONS : 1933 - Salon de la Société Nationale des Beaux Arts, Grand Palais, Paris. 1959 - Gallery Mourgue, Paris. Personal exhibition (EP). 1961 - Salon Comparaisons. 1962 - Gallery Hoche, Paris. 1970 - Town hall of Montrouge. M.J.C., Montreuil. Athanor Gallery, Pana Interior Museum, le Véşinet...
