Hein Severijns (1936–2023) – Exquisite Pair of Early Hand-Thrown Stoneware Vases with Crystalline Glaze (1977)

This carefully curated pair from his highly sought-after early 1977 period showcases a brilliant interplay of organic forms and high-temperature crystalline glazes. Offering these two complementary miniature works as a single lot creates an exceptional opportunity for dedicated collectors of European post-war art ceramics."
