Objects usually emerge from the bisque firing a light tan color but can be turned to rust (red-brown) by reduction (reducing the amount of oxygen in the kiln.) Maxwell generally favors the rust colored body, which he often leaves unglazed when producing his signature style animals. His animals start life just like any other object on the potter’s wheel.

Questions About Robert Maxwell Sculptures
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 13, 2024To identify Robert Maxwell pottery, search the bottom for a maker's mark. The American ceramicist incised his signature into the bases of many of his pieces. However, not all Robert Maxwell pottery is marked. As a result, you may also want to look at images of Maxwell's work to become familiar with his style. Maxwell was particularly well-known for using rutile glaze, which lent his pottery a speckled, mottled appearance. However, he experimented with other glazing techniques and even left some items unglazed. Because there is so much variation in his pottery, you may wish to have a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer help you with the identification process. Explore a collection of Robert Maxwell pottery on 1stDibs.
