AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Large Studio Pottery Vase with Zoomorphic Handle – 30 cm

A striking and unusual large studio pottery vase, featuring a beautifully sculpted zoomorphic handle in the form of a mythical creature or lizard. The expressive hand-modelled details and flowing organic form give the piece a distinctive sculptural character.

The vase is finished in an attractive mottled green and brown glaze with natural speckling, creating a rich surface that complements its artistic design. The combination of the elegant baluster shape and sculptural handle makes this an eye-catching decorative object as well as a functional vase.

The base bears an impressed signature or maker's mark, although it has not yet been identified. The style is reminiscent of European studio pottery from the second half of the 20th century. Comparable studio ceramics with sculptural animal handles are highly sought after by collectors of artistic pottery.

Height: 30 cm
