Vtg Handmade Studio Art Fine Pottery Ceramic Basket Glazed Beige Brown Signed By Artist NAHLER Barbara Nahler
We have many NAHLER fine studio art pottery pieces in our collection. Barbara Nahler was a well known Detroit designer. Her artwork was often shown at the Coach House Gallery.
This one of a kind handmade ceramic pottery was purchased from the Coach House Gallery that was on Van Dyke Place in Indian Village, Detroit, Michigan in the early 1970’s. Nona Herzog owned the gallery.
Nona was very active and involved with local artists as well as the Scarab Club downtown. The local artists were many….Johanna Haas, NAHLER, Bill Evans, Karen Carter, Mary Lark, Chars Herzog III to name a few. Her gallery also had artists from around the world come and display their art such as Vagh, Miele, and many more.
It is one of a kind and is just spectacular.
So unique in it's construction and how it was glazed. The basket has a "ribbed" pattern inside and out, along with the handle. The 11" ceramic basket is beautifully glazed in beige and brown shades. The basket itself is 4 1/2" tall. Glazed inside and outside. The glaze is amazing. The very bottom is not glazed. There are 4 green felt protectors on the base.
Weighs: 2lbs. 5ozs.
The artist signed the base of the piece in large letters: NAHLER.
This is an exquisite piece done in such an eclectic style. Perfect for serving fruit, or just about anything you can think of. Lovely as a piece of art just for display.
