An exceptional studio pottery slipware charger by leading British slipware potter Doug Fitch. The charger has been very intensely wood fired and the background colour has taken on an almost metallic quality. Like the fire is contained within the glaze. Excellent condition, as new. Doug’s potter’s mark to the reverse. Dimensions (approximate): 33.5cm x 33.5cm x 4cm. I bought this from Doug at the York Ceramics Fair a few years ago and was delighted to own it. But things being as they are, some compromises are having to be made across my collection and it was either this or one of Doug’s (many) jugs. I couldn’t settle on one of the jugs and there isn’t currently space to have this charger on display so, with regret, here it is. Hopefully goes without saying, but the pot easel I have used to help take the photographs is not included in any sale. This item is in the category “Pottery, Ceramics & Glass\Decorative Pottery, Ceramics & Glass\Vases”. The seller is “jorrocks1945″ and is located in this country: GB. This item can be shipped to United Kingdom.

Wood fired ceramic vessel with hand-cut lower body and pronounced surface firing marks and ash glaze. It is marked with the artist’s incised signature and date 87. Also comes with a handwritten note from the collector and an exhibition invitation postcard of the similar works. This piece has a very strong Japanese wabi-sabi appeal which is the aesthetic influence of the aritst’s work and makes a visually arresting center piece for any interior. Paul Chaleff is known for his large scale wood fired ceramic sculptures and vessels. He also created a large body of wheel thrown functional vessels. His vessels are strongly influenced by Japanese pottery, especially the work of one of Japans National Living Treasures, Takeshi Nakazato. Chaleff was one of the first American potters using a Japanese style Anagama kiln and became a leader in the introduction of this form of wood-burning kiln. In 1989, he began a regular collaboration with the British sculptor Sir Anthony Caro. Over a period of thirteen years, they created nearly 50 works, both figurative and abstract. Caros sculpture has had direct influence on Chaleffs work as has the sculpture of Isamu Noguchi, and the ceramics of John Mason and Lucie Rie. Biography is from the Mark Project. Size: 12.85″h x 12.8″dia. The item “Wood-fired Ceramic Jar Paul Chaleff” is in sale since Tuesday, July 16, 2019.
