Brutalist Studio Pottery Large Double Opening Vase, 1967 charger I've really fallen in love

I've really fallen in love with these old wooden Czechoslovakian "ramp walker" figures

where one could turn the boat in a different direction daily based on a fantasy destination

with a few small scratches to the lacquer on the exterior of the box and interior bowls

gives it the look of leaded glass

Both are in excellent condition with no signs of wear of flaws

Brutalist Studio Pottery Large Double Opening Vase, 1967 charger I've really fallen in loveThis tall double opening vase, with fantastically textural surface, has quite an presence! It's as much a sculpture as a vessel, and I'd call it Brutalist unapologetically bold and rough and all about its materiality but also rather playful about it function as a vase. Really a terrific piece that would command attention wherever it is placed. Signed what looks to be Dom Denisi on the bottom and dated 7 14 67. There is a bit of chipping around the rim
