piękna miseczka glina – kolekcjonerska german  clay keramic - 

bardzo ładn miseczka na orzeszki - drobiazgi... – w kolorze czerwonej gliny… kształt nawiązuje do stylistyki Bauhaus z lat 30 tych.

Nie ma sygnatury- stan bardzo dobry-  małe zadrapanie na rancie i przetarcie  przy kołnierzu...do pominięcia....

Niezależnie od wszystkiego- to jeden z tych przedmiotów z charakterem, strukturą, fakturą, kolorem- z których każdy poprawia nam nastrój przy każdym rzucie oka. Świetnie pasuje do naszych współczesnych minimalistycznych wnętrz. Małe dzieło sztuki- mimo, że forma jest bardzo prosta.

Ceramika niemiecka 60/70 wymiary: wysokość 5 cm średnica 10,5 cm

Polecam świetny blog prowadzony przez Petrę na ten temat… http://petraonpottery.wordpress.com/

My name is Petra and for the last three years collecting ceramics has become a serious hobby of mine. I am an art historian specialized in architectural history, but I have always loved ceramics. I never was much of a collector though, until I stumbled upon three hip looking vases in a charity shop. They were all a bit damaged, but they looked really decorative together and cost me almost nothing, so I took them home. They had a number on the base and “West Germany” written next to that. I decided to google up some information on them. The rest is history.

Now three years and 500 vases later, I recognize the different stages of collecting. Starting out with buying every piece of (cheap) West German pottery I could get, consequently learning more about them, becoming more critical, buying better pieces and spending a little more money and now with specific preferences both based on taste and (some) knowledge. I am sure new stages will follow and I am hoping to learn al lot more.

This blog showcases my ever growing collection of 20th century -predominantly German- art pottery. Through it I hope to share some of my growing knowledge on this particular field of art pottery. I learn form handling the pieces, visiting specialized forums and reading books about ceramics history and the history of art, architecture and design in general. I am especially interested in the broader context these pieces were part of. The contents in my posts are a combination of my art historical knowledge, my own opinion and associations and information I got from other sources.
