This vase was displayed formerly at the Mingei International Museum, Balboa Park, San Diego.
A document concerning provenance is included with the piece.
Shoji Hamada (1884-1978) along with Bernard Howell Leach is considered co-founder of modern day pottery, blending Eastern and Western techniques. Hamada was an important member of the mingei folk art movement, focusing on aesthetic as well as function in his ceramic creations.
Hamada was trained at Tokyo Technical College and became greatly inspired by the works of Bernard Leach, so much so that he traveled to St. Ives, United Kingdom with Leach and worked there for three years.
Afterwards, he established his own studio in Mashiko, Japan. Shoji Hamada was declared a "Living National Treasure" in 1955 and died on January 5, 1978.
His work can be found in collections and museums worldwide including Tokyos Japan Folk Art Museum and The Tate Museum, London UK.

Shoji Hamada
Shoji Hamada, Designated as a Living National Treasure in 1955, was famed for his return to folk crafts (mingei), establishing the small town of Mashiko as a center of pottery. Hamada espoused simplicity of form in his works, particularly notable in his sugar cane motifs. Hamada strived to reach a style and feeling of innocence through his craft.

Joel Edwards Signed Mid-Century Modern Brutalist California Studio Pottery Vase
By Joel Edwards
Located in Studio City, CA
A wonderfully designed, quite heavy brutalist sculptural vase by famed American California potter, Joel Edwards. This piece features a sumptuous glaze of varying dark and shimmering colors.
Edwards was a student of Peter Voulkos at Otis. He also studied under Marguerite Wildenhain and Shoji Hamada.
This quite solid vase (likely 10-12 pounds) is signed by Edwards on the base.
Would make for a great addition to any Mid-Century Modern pottery collection or eye-catching stand-alone work in about any setting.
Edward's works can be found in many private collections and museums including:
American Museum of Ceramic Art, Ponoma, California
Long Beach Museum of Art, Long Beach, California
Scripps College, Claremont...
