French Mid-Century Ceramic Vase with Geometric Decoration by G. Masarra, 1950s

About the Item

French mid-century ceramic vase with geometric decoration by Gabriel Masarra, 1950s The shape is conical and narrows towards the top (7-19cm) The opening is slightly curved, the inside of the vase is spelt brown. The surface is rough and textured and has a slight grain and has a slight sheen, which together with the rough surface gives the object a very special charm. The color is beige, sand-colored. At the front is a small, three-dimensional ceramic sculpture made of geometric surfaces, which breaks up the round shape of the object. The object is heavy and has a very special, austere character. The artist was born in Sicily in 1940, the son of Marius and Marie Musarra. It is only natural that he trained in ceramics in the family studio. He produced very elegant and artistic pieces with silky glazes, slender shapes vases, bottles, jugs, plates. But his repertoire also includes objects with a more rustic surface and structure. His pieces are signed Musarra Gabriel Musarra died in 2015.
