Aylesford Pottery the Friars Red Glazed Studio Pottery Vase

About the Item

A stylish The Friars Aylesford Pottery studio pottery vase decorated in red glazes dating from the 20th century. The Aylesford pottery was founded in 1954 by David Leach who taught pottery to the friars. In 1958 it was taken over by Colin Pearson and changed hands again in the 1960’s when Pearson set up on his own. This lovely vase is probably quite an early example and is finely hand thrown standing on a narrow round unglazed base and is of round bulbous shape with a simple round opening. The vase has been created with four panels divided by vertical incised divisions and is decorated in deep red glazes on a grey glazed ground. There are a few natural firing glaze bursts within the body of the vase has an impressed Aylesford pottery mark to the base. Provenance: acquired in the British Art Market. In good condition with a few natural glaze bursts to the body.

  • Beatrice Wood Signed Midcentury California Studio Pottery Luster Glaze Vase
    By Beatrice Wood
    Located in Studio City, CA
    A wonderful gem of a piece by famed American/California ceramicist Beatrice Wood featuring her highly coveted, gorgeously radiant turquoise luster glaze. A beautiful design with a delicate long neck rising from a circular base. Classic and timeless. Signed by Beatrice in her customary "Beato" on the underside of the base (with noted inventory number). Would be an amazing addition to any Mid-Century Modern pottery collection or personal collectors of her work or a fabulous stand-alone accent piece in about any setting. One of the best Beatrice Wood's luster glaze vases we have come across in quite a while. Know famously in the art world as "The Mama of Dada", Wood lived a long (1893-1998) and very fruitful, creative life and is considered by many experts and collectors alike to have been a centerpiece in the modern ceramic art movement of the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s. At one point in her career, Wood studied with master potters Otto and Gertrud Natzler and later become famed in her own right for her distinct luster-glazing techniques. In 1994, the Smithsonian Institution named Wood an "Esteemed American Artist". Her other awards include: 1994 Governor’s Awards for the Arts (California) 1993 Recognition as A Role Model by Women in Film 1992 Gold Medal for Highest Achievement in Craftsmanship, American Craft Council 1988 Distinguished Service Award, Arizona State University 1987 Fellow of American Craft Council Women’s Art Caucus, National Award (NCECA Award) 1986 Women’s Building Award 1984 Living Treasure of California 1983 Symposium Award of the Institute for Ceramic History 1961 Goodwill Ambassador from USA...
