Vintage Retro Mid-Century Atomic Modern Ceramic Ashtray, Signed, Circa 1950
A beautiful highly sculptural ashtray with a series of round openings that give depth and interest. The deep rich glaze of the ashtray is ringed with a series of alternating lines that are further reinforced by an atomic modern pattern.
The tapered form of the ashtray punctuated with a series of holes is executed in a very sensual manner that heightens one’s awareness of its overall three-dimensional shape. The form is masterfully conceived both in terms of its galactic style pattern and circular planetary like openings which are fully glazed.
This is the work of a master potter. The ashtray exudes a power and individuality that is found in the time-honored techniques developed by the best of the Mid-century Modern potters. The ashtray is marked with a series of numbers in addition to what appears to be the artists mark or initials.
The ashtray is in excellent vintage condition, with NO chips or cracks and does not appear to have ever been used. This Art Pottery vase is the PERFECT addition to your Mid-Century Modern Studio Art Pottery collection.
Dimensions: 2.75 inches high x 7 inches in diameter.
