1960s Studio Pottery Sgraffito Vase by California Potter Joel Edwards
About the Item
Here's a beautiful pottery vase by mid-century California studio potter Joel Edwards (1923 - 2007). In tones of blues and greens, the vase is decorated with abstract forms in sgraffito--a technique Edwards' frequently used in his pottery. In excellent condition with no chips, cracks or repairs. The vessel is signed on the bottom. Note that the vase diameter is not perfectly round--it's somewhat organic in shape, which is signature in Edwards' pottery.
Edwards studied at the Brooklyn Museum School in Brooklyn, New York and MFA Otis Art Institute (now Otis College of Art and Design) in Los Angeles, California, where he was a student of Peter Voulkos.
From American Artist Magazine, December 1966: "Joel Edwards could hardly be called unknown in the craft fields, for he is the kind of person who becomes deeply involved, and he is intensely interested in the revival and presentation of all hand crafts. His success stems from a combination of artistic skills, intrinsic good taste and fine workmanship..."

Joel Edwards Signed Mid-Century Modern Brutalist California Studio Pottery Vase
By Joel Edwards
Located in Studio City, CA
A wonderfully designed, quite heavy brutalist sculptural vase by famed American California potter, Joel Edwards. This piece features a sumptuous glaze of varying dark and shimmering colors.
Edwards was a student of Peter Voulkos at Otis. He also studied under Marguerite Wildenhain and Shoji Hamada.
This quite solid vase (likely 10-12 pounds) is signed by Edwards on the base.
Would make for a great addition to any Mid-Century Modern pottery collection or eye-catching stand-alone work in about any setting.
Edward's works can be found in many private collections and museums including:
American Museum of Ceramic Art, Ponoma, California
Long Beach Museum of Art, Long Beach, California
Scripps College, Claremont...
