About the Item

This Postmodern ceramic stool by Eric O’Leary, crafted between 1980-1989, exemplifies his innovative approach to form and glaze. Hand-painted in deep red, rust, and black tones, the piece features an expressive, sculptural surface that highlights O’Leary’s experimental techniques. Its versatile proportions allow it to function as a stool, side table, or plant stand, suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Eric O’Leary is a prominent American artist known for his unique surface treatments and architectural forms, often blending utility with artistic expression. His work has been exhibited in various venues, including the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, which houses his ceramic bench created in 1998. This piece was procured from a private collection and has slight chipping to one corner, as shown in the photos.
