About the Item

This striking mid-century modern ceramic vase features a bold sculptural form adorned with a stylized celestial face, evocative of sun and moon iconography popular in postwar studio pottery. The vessel presents an ovoid body with a short flared neck, its surface animated by a deeply modeled human visage framed by radiating, petal-like elements that suggest solar rays or lunar symbolism. The facial features are softly abstracted, lending the piece a timeless, almost primitive-modern character. The ceramic surface exhibits a richly textured, earthy glaze in warm brown and rust tones, with natural variations, speckling, and kiln effects that emphasize its handcrafted nature. Subtle irregularities and tooling marks further reinforce its studio-made origin. This piece functions beautifully as a decorative vase or sculptural accent, equally at home in a mid-century modern, brutalist, or eclectic interior. Its strong presence and expressive design make it an excellent focal point for a shelf, console, or tabletop display, whether styled alone or as part of a curated ceramic collection.
