AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Unique, horizontally oriented vase by Dutch ceramic artist Riet Bakker, known for her sculptural shapes and soft glaze transitions. The vase features a powerful, wing-like form with a central ridge line and an organically shaped opening at the top, ideal for a few branches, flowers, or as a pure object in the interior.

The stoneware features a subtle glaze in earthy tones: from sandy and olive green at the top to cool blue-gray at the bottom, with a matte to softly glossy surface. The vase is clearly marked on the bottom with the embossed RB monogram, characteristic of Bakker’s studio ceramics from the 1980s–1990s.

Condition: good vintage state, without cracks or restorations; minor glaze nuances and minimal baking and usage marks appropriate for handmade studio work.


Will be carefully packed and shipped.
