Signed studio art-glass bowl by celebrated British glass artist Norman Stuart Clarke. This individually hand-blown bowl is formed from thick pale celadon-white opaline glass with a beautiful soft satin-frosted finish. The exterior is decorated with expressive painterly inclusions and flowing abstract forms in pink, cobalt blue, pale blue, orange and black. Fine dark linear trails move through the coloured decoration, giving the bowl the appearance of an abstract painting suspended within the glass. The colours continue around the full circumference, making the piece visually engaging from every angle. The interior has a softly diffused translucent appearance, allowing the external colours to remain visible through the thick glass. The bowl stands upon an applied circular glass foot. The underside retains its hand-finished pontil area and is. Engraved with the artist’s signature. Confirming it as an authentic studio work by Norman Stuart Clarke. Clarke is recognised as an important figure in the British studio-glass movement and is particularly admired for his expressive use of colour, abstract trailing and individually blown sculptural forms. A particularly attractive example of British studio glass that would work beautifully as a decorative centrepiece, collector’s object or sculptural display piece. Decorative bowl / centrepiece. Hand-engraved signature on the underside. Celadon white, pink, cobalt blue, orange and black. No obvious major chips or losses are visible. Small bubbles, variations in thickness, pontil irregularities and differences in the coloured decoration are natural characteristics of individually hand-blown studio glass and should not be considered manufacturing faults. Several fine dark lines visible within the bowl appear to form part of the incorporated abstract decoration. Buyers should nevertheless study all photographs carefully, as they form an important part of the condition description. The raised central area underneath is associated with the handmade pontil and finishing process and is not a later repair. The engraved signature on the underside is faint because of the pale frosted glass but is visible under angled lighting. This is a substantial and fragile handmade glass object.

Awesome Mike Norman Man Vase. Art is similar to Ron Meyers Mint Condition. This is a beautiful Unused Mike Norman Man Vase! The vase measures 8 inches high x 3 1/4 inches in diameter. This is an opportunity to own a wonderful authentic piece of Mike’s work. Artist Statement I majored in forest management at the University of Minnesota until I serendipitously took a pottery class with Warren Mackenzie in 1961. Forty seven years latter I’m still making art out of that delicious clay and with an alchemist touch transforming it into wondrous things. Art and craft are blurred and merged as I continue to do low fired brilliantly glazed narrative and allegorical sculptures as well as muted colored functional, utilitarian, high fired porcelain and stoneware pottery with intricate surface drawing. Process, exploration and emotion are my compass and animals continue to be both guides in spirit and form reminding me with a song, when I forget, the interconnection with all things.
