About the Item

A tall, darkly glazed work by famed pottery masters Otto and Gertrud Natzler. This large vase was hand thrown and formed by Gertrud and glazed by Otto with a darkly hued metallic black crystalline glaze. The bowl glows in the light. Rare in shape and glaze. This work is sure to give aesthetic pleasure for years to come and would be an amazing addition to any Natzler or modern ceramic collection or setting. Signed with their customary "Natzler" signature on the underside and retains its original paper studio label "H761" as well as the original Neiman Marcus retail tag. A rare combination. Otto Natzler was born in Vienna, Austria and immigrated with his wife Gertrud to America at the advent of WW II. They settled in Los Angeles where they began a ceramics studio. Their now well-documented collaboration lasted over thirty years until Gertrud's death in 1971. Gertrud threw the clay and formed it, while Otto glazed and fired the vessels. Their works are often distinguished by the varied glazes and surfaces. Otto, who was well known for meticulously testing each glaze, applied the glazes with great consideration of the clay form with which it is married to. Otto continued his career after his wife's passing for another 35 years until his own death at the age of 99. The Natzler's work can be found in prestigious collections and museums throughout the world including: The Grace Museum, Abilene, Texas Cooper-Hewitt Museum Everson Museum of Art Honolulu Museum of Art Kantonales Gewerbemuseum Los Angeles County Museum of Art Metropolitan Museum of Art Museo Internazionale delle Ceramiche Museum of Arts and Design Museum of Modern Art Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art Dimensions: 10" high, 5.5" diameter.
