Mid-Century Fat Lava Ceramic Cross
Located in Chicago, IL
This mid-century wall cross embodies the distinctive European design ethos of the 1950s, masterfully handcrafted by a studio pottery artist. The piece features a "fat lava" glaze, a hallmark of the period, renowned for its thick, bubbly texture that creates a dramatic and tactile surface. This particular cross showcases a grey-white glaze overlying the robust terra cotta red of the clay body, presenting a striking visual contrast that is both rugged and delicate. The form of the cross itself is slender and minimalist, a design choice reflective of the modernist movement's lean towards simplicity and functional beauty. This minimalist form is artfully juxtaposed with the maximalist texture of the fat lava glaze, offering a visual and tactile play between excess and restraint. This texture, reminiscent of volcanic surfaces, gives the cross an almost otherworldly appearance, while the grey and white tones evoke a sense of tranquility and reverence suitable for a devotional object. The cross's slim profile, combined with the depth of the glaze's texture, allows it to stand out as a significant piece of both religious significance and artistic innovation. As a representation of mid-century European studio pottery, this ceramic cross...

Midcentury European Brown and Green Ceramic Cross Otherworldly Christ Figure
Located in Chicago, IL
With a wink to brutalism, this wall cross is a unique midcentury work by Flemish artisans. The dark brown hue, reminiscent of weathered patina, adds a sense of history to the cross, while the textured slate-like ceramic further enhances its character. The focal point of this cross is the subtle and mysterious Christ figure at its center. As if worn down by the passage of time, the relief of the outline hints at a transcendent presence. The blend of dark brown and green tones creates an ethereal quality, evoking a sense of otherworldliness and inviting contemplation. Our cross collection encompasses a wide range of styles, from futurist modernism to raw brutalism, offering many possibilities for creating a custom wall of modernist crucifixes...
