Van Briggle Pottery Owl Figure in Scarce Dusty Rose Glaze C.1989 9.5"

Descripción

This phenomenal owl sculpture was done by renowned art pottery, Van Briggle, in Colorado.   He stands about 9-1/2 inches tall, and was created in the very last part of the 80's, or very beginning of the 1990's, with a high probability of being made in 1989.   Dusty Rose was just starting to be used as a glaze, and very very few of these owls were made with this color glaze. There were a few rouge glazers who experimented with it before it became a mainstream glaze for Van Briggle, and this lucky guy was one of the few, and earliest pieces to use it!  He is clearly marked on the bottom:  His finisher was Clara Beyers, and his glazer was Helen Johnson, signified by the CB and the V incised in the base.  He is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, repairs, or crazing.  The color, dusty rose tinged with smoky blue, in my opinion, is what really makes this sculpture special...it's completely haunting and ethereal, and lends something to the whole attitude of the owl. If you love art pottery, you will want to add this spectacular piece to your collection!
