About the Item
A large, early and rare example of Glidden Parker's ceramic artistry, this striking tray depicting a horse with flying tail and mane depicts his mastery of the sgraffito technique, whereby the artist created a design by scraping through the wet glaze before firing. Parker was one of the most important graduates of the renowned ceramics department at Alfred College, and he went on to create one of America's most successful potteries, helping to move the nation from Art Deco to a more spare, modern esthetic in his decorative and kitchen ware.

Glidden Parker, born in the USA in 1913, was most famous for his influence on modern ceramics and home design. Parker's stripped-down, geometric forms for tableware and decorative ware became widely popular in the 1940s and 1950s, and his earliest pieces sometimes have Art Deco decorative motifs.

Mathilde Schaefer Modern Studio Pot with Horse Motif
By Mathilde Schaefer
Located in Phoenix, AZ
Beautiful and whimsical ceramic vase handmade by celebrated artist Mathilde Schaefer, wife of noted Arizona artist Lew Davis.
This unusual and rare terra cotta vase with a glazed turquoise interior
(and other glazed portions: manes, tails, hooves and eyes), is dated 1949
on the bottom in pencil and marked "Desert Kilns Arizona."
Also inscribed in pencil on the bottom: “Merry Christmas from Bill Benton.”
We are not certain who the recipient was but the vase was owned and given as a gift by Bill Benton, a Senator from Connecticut who wintered in Arizona. He was a friend of Frank Lloyd Wright in the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s when Arizona and Phoenix in particular had a very active art community.
Known in Arizona in the 1960s as an instructor of pottery and sculpture at the Desert School of Art in Scottsdale and also as the wife of artist Lew Davis, she was born in New York City and studied with Raoul Josset and Walter Lemcke.
In 1938, she began exhibiting at the Art Institute of Chicago. She married Davis and they moved to Scottsdale, Arizona where she maintained a studio. Her sculpture is in numerous collections including that of International Business Machines...
