AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Studio ceramics vessel group – sculptural ceramic cluster, red glazed surface, mid-20th century



Description

Sculptural group of handcrafted studio ceramics, designed as a closed unit.
The object consists of several organically shaped vessels that are firmly connected to each other, forming a powerful, plastic overall shape. It is not made up of individual vases, but rather a deliberately designed sculptural composition.

The surface is coated with a deep red to rust brown glaze, featuring subtle color nuances and natural firing marks. The glossy glaze emphasizes the softly rounded shapes and gives the object a calm, earthy appearance. The openings vary slightly in diameter and height, creating a lively rhythm within the group.

Such works are typical of European studio ceramics from the mid-20th century, where the focus was on materiality, form, and sculptural expression. The object is clearly intended as an artistic ceramic piece and is ideally suited as a central collector's or exhibition piece.

state
Good age-appropriate condition. No cracks or restorations detected. Slight glass surface irregularities and firing marks are present and consistent with handcrafted production.

Dating

Dimensions (approx.):

Total height: approximately 7 cm.


An expressive example of modern studio ceramics, ideal for collectors, design enthusiasts, or as a sculptural interior piece.
