About the Item

A harmonious three-piece ceramic set by American studio artist Bob Sakoda, dated 1980. A thoughtful example of California’s mid-century craft tradition, Sakoda’s work is defined by modernist restraint, hand-thrown precision, and an intuitive relationship between form and surface. Each crafted in speckled stoneware with soft natural glaze variations. When displayed together, the three pieces form a quiet sculptural dialogue—each echoing the other in proportion and tone. Dimensions: – Large vessel: 17″ diameter × 2″ deep – Each smaller vessel: 8″ diameter × 2″ deep Artist: Bob Sakoda Date: 1980 (signed and dated) Origin: California, USA Materials: Stoneware with speckled glaze Condition: Excellent vintage condition; no chips or cracks

Papier-Mâché Dress Form on Original Wooden Stand, Mid-20th Century
Located in Oceanside, US
A sculptural papier-mâché dress form mounted on its original freestanding wooden slat stand, dating from the mid-20th century. The form is lightweight and crafted from layered brown paper, hand-shaped and finished with a varnished surface that highlights its textural quality. The minimalist torso silhouette paired with the vertical oak or pine slat stand creates a modernist aesthetic, making this dress form not only a collectible object of fashion history but also a distinctive decorative accent for interiors. Its sculptural quality allows it to function as both artifact and art object. Origin: USA or Europe Date: Circa 1940s–1960s Very good vintage condition. The papier-mâché surface shows natural irregularities, patina, and light wear consistent with age. Structurally sound with stand intact. A rare survivor from the era before fiberglass mannequins...
