Dealer notes

A magnificent and highly coveted pair of monumental crucible planters, in the manner of Atelier Vierkant, Belgium - the most sought-after atelier pottery in California Organic Modern design. The form is pure and architectural: a tall, generous egg-shaped silhouette with a rounded belly, thick walls, and a wide, open mouth with a heavy, hand-finished flat rim. The scale is substantial and grounding - perfect as entry sentinels for olive trees, on a terrace, or as standalone sculptural vessels. This pair exceptional is the extraordinary quality volcanic-like patina. The surface is a heavily encrusted, pitted, and texture stone crust in layers of fossilized sand, greige, cement and limestone, densely speckled with lava like pits. The interior, shown reveals the raw, warm terracotta body with a natural fired finish, confirming true artisan, hand-thrown construction . Heavy substantial, made to last generations. Dimensions: Diameter: 14 in Height : 27.5 in Sold As: Set of 2 Style: Organic Modern Materials and Techniques: Terracotta Place of Origin: Unknown Date of Manufacture: Mid-20th century Condition: Distressed
