Studio Art Raku-Fired Ceramic Vessels with Sculptural Totem Finials, Set of 3 (2 Shown)

$630

Antiques & Decorative Arts · Late 20th to Early 21st Century, circa 1980–2010

A striking set of three studio art raku-fired stoneware vessels featuring globular, pillow-form bodies glazed in rich amber, copper, and earth tones with characteristic raku crackle texture and high-luster metallic iridescence. Each vessel is surmounted by a distinctive removable sculptural finial of iron or mixed-metal/ceramic construction in a totem-like 'U' or bifurcated form with ladder-like openwork detail, lending the ensemble a strong Southwestern or pre-Columbian aesthetic sensibility. The cohesive set format — three matching vessels with integrated sculptural toppers — elevates this above a single decorative piece into the realm of a unified sculptural installation.
