About the Item
An assemble of two stemmed cylinder-shape stoneware vases by American studio potter Warren MacKenzie (1924-2018). The two vases have a complementary form and silouette and display nicely together. The surface of the slightly taller vase is covered in orange Shino like glaze with white marking and scattered darker specks, mimicking the orange skin. Two roundels were placed on the front and back of the vase, a design that is unusual in the artist's repertoire. The shorter vase has a dark brown glaze mottled with a lighter yellow color with the dripping effect from the rim. It has an interesting, swelled butterfly shape body and a sharp hand-carved midline. Although clearly informed by the Japanese Mingei pottery aesthetic, the form and the stylized details are rather unique on these pieces. The shorter vase is Impressed artist's chop mark toward the base. The taller vase measures 7.5" h x 5.25" w x 4.5" d. The shorter vase measures 6.2" h x 5.25" w x 4" d.
Warren MacKenzie was a student of Bernard Leach and Shoji Hamada, the British and Japanese potters who were masters of Mingei (folk art) pottery. Mackinzie is credited with bringing the functional Mingei tradition to the United States and spreading it through his own art and mentorship during his long tenure at the University of Minnesota.

Warren MacKenzie
Warren MacKenzie is recognized as a true master of 20th-century ceramic art. Through his traditional wheel-thrown vessels, hIs pottery embodies strong influences from Bernard Leach and Shoji Hamada. His work consistently represents the confidence of where the potter’s hand is felt and touched through the utilitarian pots that are produced for use in everyday life. Among other numerous awards, MacKenzie was named a Regent’s Professor, a fellow of the International Academy of Ceramics, and was the first to receive the Minnesota Governor’s Award in Crafts in 1986. In 1997, he received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Minnesota Crafts Council and in 1998 was honored with the Gold Medal from the American Crafts Council. His work is represented in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York; the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C.; The National Folk Art Museum in Tokyo, Japan; the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, England; Contemporary American Crafts Museum in New York; Bernard Leach Study Collection in Bath, England, the Minnesota Museum of American Art in St. Paul and the Weisman Art Museum and the Minneapolis Institute of Arts in Minneapolis.

Ceramic Vase with Bespoken Glaze by Makoto Yabe
By Makoto Yabe
Located in Atlanta, GA
Made by Japanese ceramic artist Makoto Yabe (1947-2005), this stoneware vase features a globular body supported by a round pedestal foot. A similarly shaped neck extends to a rimmed mouth opening. Robust in form with thick wall, the vase is noted for its irregular cloved form. The surface is covered in a beige-yellow glaze, on top of which, dark brown strokes and thick white feldspar slip were artistically applied in a splashed and washed pattern. Together with some random shallow incision lines, they form an abstract painting with textured surface where some slip forms small droplets at the end of the stroke. The work was created in traditional Japanese manner and reflects the beauty of Wabi Sabi, a Zen aesthetic for the imperfect perfection.
The base was incised with the artist's cipher.
"Makoto Yabe's work beautifully exemplifies the transmission of Japanese ceramics to the West. Born in Fukushima, Japan, Yabe began studying ceramics in Kyoto at the age of nine. He completed his training at the age of 24, with a four-year apprenticeship under Jinmatsu Uno and Sango Uno. Yabe then came to Boston, where he was an integral member of the local ceramic community, yet he maintained his Japanese roots. As an instructor of ceramics, Yabe worked in the Boston area at numerous schools and universities, touching the lives of all his students and expanding their knowledge and appreciation of studio ceramics."
