Rose and Erni Cabat Glazed Porcelain Feelie Vase, Tall Purple, Grey Ceramic

About the Item

Rose and Erni Cabat glazed porcelain feelie vase, purple, gray ceramic. Signed and dated. Rose Cabat worked in earthenware, stoneware and, finally, porcelain beginning in the 1950s. Although best known for her expressive "feelies", small forms usually between two to eight inches in height with thin neck openings challenging their assumed vessel function. Cabat also created a series of wind-bells in the 1950s and other forms based on insects and animals. Cabot, a self taught artist, first encountered clay as an artistic medium in 1940 when her husband, Erni, brought it home from work. Her first works were coil built, then, as electric wheels became increasingly available, she started throwing pottery. After a glaze calculation class at the University of Hawaii in 1956 she and Erni began developing the lustrous satin glazes used on her signature form; the “feelie.” Public Collections Arizona State University Art Museum, Tempe, Arizona Everson Museum of Art, Syracuse, New York Kansas City Art Institute, Kansas City, Kansas Museum of Arts and Design, New York, New York Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, New York National Museum of American History, Washington, DC Philadelphia Museum of Art, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Phoenix Art Museum, Phoenix, Arizona Smithsonian American Art Museum, Renwick Gallery, Washington, DC Tucson Museum of Art, Tucson, Arizona Bibliography Block, Bruce. “A Visit with Rose Cabat.” Journal of the American Art Pottery Association. 20, no.4 (2004).
