Large 33cm Vintage 1970s Brutalist Studio Pottery Jug (3kg) Volcanic Lava Glaze

An exceptional, substantial example of 1970s Brutalist studio pottery. Standing at 33cm tall and weighing a solid 3kg, this is a heavy, high-quality “statement” piece. It perfectly embodies the raw, organic aesthetic of the Mid-Century Modern movement, featuring a rugged “volcanic” exterior that offers incredible tactile and visual depth. Design & Aesthetic? The Exterior: Heavily hand-molded with deep grooves and a multi-tonal, earthy glaze. The “molten lava” texture is highly characteristic of the 1970s Brutalist style. The Interior: A striking contrast is provided by a smooth, vibrant green glossy glaze, a signature “surprise” detail often found in premium studio work from this era. This large-scale sculptural pitcher features a thick, hand-built handle and a sturdy, unglazed base, making it ideal as a standalone floor vase or a centerpiece. Specifications? Height: 33 cm? Weight: 3 kg (Solid, heavy-set stoneware)? Condition: Excellent vintage condition. Very miniscule chipping on random edges but tjus has to be scrutinised to be noticeable (please see photographs) no cracks. The base shows authentic hand-finished character.
