About the Item

Beautifully enrobed in a pale, ivory-toned glaze, this rare, high style Art Deco trivet depicts a fashionable female figure in profile, her hair curled in repeating waves like the lapping water of an seaside beach. The woman is surrounded by a border adorned with flowers and leaves bound together with ribbon. The artist was Thelma Frazier, one of a spectacular group of artists gathered together by Cowan Pottery in the 1920s, many of whom -- such as Waylande Gregory and Victor Schreckengost -- went on to distinguished careers after Cowan closed in the early 1930s. Frazier later married Edward Winter, one of America's greatest enamel artists before and after World War II, and at that point she did both ceramic and enamel work. This piece is well marked on the bottom.

"Salome with Head of John the Baptist", Unique Art Deco Charger, Ericson
By Estrid Ericson
Located in Philadelphia, PA
Elegant and beautifully crafted, this superb example of Swedish Grace artisanry was made by the famed Svenskt Tenn workshop in Sweden, which produced a wide range of artisan-designed and made sculptures and home goods, often in pewter, as here. Svenskt Tenn was founded in 1924 by Estrid Ericson, who brought together an astounding array of artists such as Josef Frank and Anna Petrus, many now world-renowned, to create a wide range of objects. Ericson herself was known for creating works in pewter with patterns or designs incised in the metal, so this piece is attributed to her artistry. Here she depicts Salome, holding the head of John the Baptist...
