About the Item

This expressive mid-century studio pottery vase features a classic bottle-form silhouette accented by richly layered glazes and hand-painted decoration. The vessel is finished in a warm cream crackle glaze, revealing fine, intentional crazing throughout the surface, and is adorned with abstract floral and foliate motifs rendered in muted blue and olive tones. A dramatic iron-rich drip glaze cascades from the neck in deep brown and black hues, creating a striking contrast against the lighter body and emphasizing the organic character of the piece. The form and glaze treatment reflect strong influences from the Japanese Mingei tradition, a hallmark of American studio pottery produced during the mid-20th century. Unmarked, as is typical of studio ceramics of this period, the vase was clearly hand-thrown and individually glazed, resulting in subtle variations that underscore its artisanal nature. Both sculptural and functional, it works beautifully as a standalone decorative object or as a vessel for branches or dried florals. A refined example of mid-century studio pottery, well-suited for collectors of modern ceramics, wabi-sabi interiors, or thoughtfully curated design spaces.
