Mid-Century Modern Signed California Studio Pottery Tenmoku Glazed Art Vase
About the Item
A beautifully designed, large glazed artisan California studio pottery vase. The piece appears to be colored with a Tenmoku glaze (sometimes also spelled "temmoku" or "temoku") - a type of Japanese high-temperature, reduction-fired ceramic glaze known for its glossy, dark brown or maroon color. The vase is decorated with a poured drip glaze similar to the technique of famed Japanese potter Shoji Hamada. This piece radiates gorgeously in the light.
The piece is signed ("Groves" or "Graves") and dated (1970) on the base.
Provenance: from a Santa Barbara Southern California collection.
Would be a great addition to any Mid-Century Modern pottery/ceramics collection or make for an eye catching stand alone accent piece in about any setting.
