Doyle Lane Mid-Century Modern Rare Colored Glass Ceramic Pottery Square Form

About the Item

A rare, beautifully designed glass or ceramic form by famed midcentury American artist or potter Doyle Lane. Lane was a glaze specialist much like Glen Lukens and Otto Natzler. His colorful glazes would melt, bubble and crack over his pieces creating a very tactile look and feel. His work ranged from beaded necklaces and pendants to small, delicate vases or weed pots to ceramic sculptures, clay paintings, and large scale wall mosaics (including his most well-known work - an 18-foot mosaic or mural known as the orange wall which was commissioned by architect Welton Becket in 1964 for Mutual Savings & Loan offices in Pasadena, California. This work, which is signed or stamped by Lane on the underside (rare for these works from what we understand), comes from a larger collection of his works (please see the last photo). Again, very rare in scale and form. Lane's work is scarce and hard to find. Would be a great addition to any collectors of Lane's work or midcentury ceramics. Lane's work can be found in numerous collections and museums including: Los Angeles County Museum of Art Oakland Museum of California California African American Museum Smithsonian American Art Museum Huntington Library, San Marino Dimensions: 2.75" wide, 2.75" deep, .75" high.
