Organic Modern Ceramics
ORGANIC MODERN STYLE
Organic modern furniture is characterized by clean lines, an overall uncomplicated aesthetic and a prioritizing of natural, sustainable materials, such as wood and stone. There are lots of earth tones and natural-world textures rather than bright color palettes or fabrics embellished with busy patterns.
Organic furniture is minimalist and, owing to the ideas of venerable architect Frank Lloyd Wright, designed for warm spaces that promote harmony between human habitation and the great outdoors. Organic modern design, including in furniture and architecture, emerged in the 1930s.
Designers such as Andrianna Shamaris, Alguacil & Perkoff and Jörg Pietschmann — all known for organic modern design — have created furniture that brings dynamic and unpredictable energy to home interiors while emphasizing the importance of a relationship with the natural world.
Striking an appealing balance between our living spaces and nature doesn't have to be an arduous task — the broad selection of original organic modern furniture on 1stDibs includes solid wood tables, bamboo seating options, hand-knotted wall tapestries and more.

Paul Anthony Vintage Teal Green Stoneware Service Set of 8
Located in North Hollywood, CA

Paul Anthony Modernist Studio Art Pottery Stoneware set for 2, 2 dinner plates, 2 salad plates and 2 Cereal bowls 2 mugs.
Colors are green and teal.
Vintage signed Paul Anthony Abstract Modernist Studio Art Pottery textured.
Anthony Stoneware is an American pottery founded in 1966 by Paul Anthony with the vision & passion to produce functional ceramic ware of high material integrity, excellent design and pleasing aesthetic.
Anthony Stoneware is the pottery of Paul Anthony and Tim Jaqua who work from their studio in Western North Carolina using traditional techniques of wheel-throwing and slab construction. Not only do they mix their own glazes, but the pottery is fired in a gas-fired kiln which they designed and built.
Each piece is handcrafted on the potter's wheel or constructed from clay slabs using techniques that Paul and Tim have been developing in the studio since 1966.
Carved and sculpted rims are prevalent and have become the signature design element of their work.
All ware is fired to 2400o F to create a very durable, vitreous product that will not decay, fade, or breakdown, which with care will become an heirloom.
A great pottery pieces with a lot of visual and textural interest.
MARKINGS: signed and stamped impressed with Paul Anthony and his logo on the bottom.
Individually made, unusual glaze craftsmanship contrasts with mottled colors, each piece is slightly different, full of artistic beauty.
