Large Mid Century Studio Pottery Brutalist Jug Vase Lava Glaze Ceramic 32cm
A striking and highly decorative mid-century studio pottery jug vase with a wonderfully textured lava glaze finish. Standing an impressive 32cm tall, this is a substantial piece of studio ceramic art, featuring a heavily textured cratered surface in muted tones of charcoal, stone grey, flashes of blue and moss green. The sculptural form, with its angular shoulders and robust loop handle, gives the piece a distinctly Brutalist feel, whilst the richly tactile glaze creates endless visual interest from every angle. Adding an unexpected splash of colour, the interior is finished in a beautiful turquoise glaze which contrasts perfectly with the rugged exterior surface. Whether displayed as a standalone decorative object, incorporated into a collection of studio ceramics or used to hold architectural dried stems, this is a piece that makes a real statement. A superb example of the bold, organic pottery produced during the 1960s and 1970s when studio ceramics became an important part of modern interior design. No obvious cracks or repairs noted. Displays the expected firing irregularities, surface variations and character associated with studio pottery of this type. Please study photographs carefully as they form part of the description. Weight: Substantial decorative piece.
