Vtg Handmade Studio Art Fine Pottery Unique Stand With Glazed Bowl Signed By Artist 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 8" bowl is beautifully glazed in deep cobalt blue with other shades of lighter, subtle blue. The ceramic on the outside is heavily glazed in a two tone gray. Embossed all around the piece are abstract "bouquets" of circles and connecting lines. The very bottom is not glazed, nor is the inside.
The artist signed the inside 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.
