Mobach Bowls and Baskets

Dutch, b. 1895

Since the establishment, five generations of Mobachs have been working with a team of staff in a historic building on Kanaalweg, Utrecht. Throughout the century, the method hardly changed. All ceramics are thrown on the wheel or shaped by hand from coils or sheets of clay. The ceramic pieces, such as the bodies of this set, owe their distinctive look to the exclusive glazes, which are composed according to the company’s recipe. Due to the high firing temperature, Mobach ceramics are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.

Laura Andreson Signed Monumental Glazed Mid-Century Modern Ceramic Pottery Bowl
Laura Andreson Signed Monumental Glazed Mid-Century Modern Ceramic Pottery Bowl

Laura Andreson Signed Monumental Glazed Mid-Century Modern Ceramic Pottery Bowl

By Laura Andreson

Located in Studio City, CA

A wonderfully crafted and beautifully glazed (in Fall greens and browns) large bowl/vase by renowned American potter Laura Andreson. Gorgeous in its Mid-Century Modern design and shifting colors. Signed on the base by Andreson. A quite special and rare work. Certainly, one of the best pieces of Andreson's work we have had the pleasure to come across. Highly collectible. Would be a great addition to any midcentury ceramics collection or a very eye-catching stand-alone work in about any setting. Andreson, who studied under Glen Lukens, founded and headed the ceramics department at UCLA from 1933-1970. Her work can be found in many collections and museums worldwide including: Metropolitan Museum of Art The Museum of Modern Art Museum of Fine Arts, Boston Smithsonian Museum of American Art The Los Angeles County Museum of Art The Walker Art Center The Nora Eccles Harrison Museum of Art. Her exhibitions include: 1937 Rene Rosenthal Gallery, New York City, New York. 1938 First California Ceramic Exhibition, San Diego, California 1940 Honolulu Academy of Art. 1947 Eleventh National Ceramics Exhibition, Metropolitan Museum of Art. 1970 Fredric Art Gallery, UCLA, Los Angeles, California. 1970 Laguna Beach Art Gallery. 1971 Mills College Art Gallery, Oakland, California. 1971 Hoover Art Gallery, San Francisco, California. 1971 San Diego Fine Arts Gallery, San Diego, California. 1971 Utah State University, Logan, Utah. 1972 Pasadena Art Museum, Pasadena, California. 1972 Ceramics West, Utah State University, Logan, Utah. 1972 Ogden Art Center, Ogden, Utah. 1972 Bower Museum, Santa Ana, California. 1973 Utah Museum of Fine Art, Salt Lake City, Utah. 1973 Clay and Fiber Gallery, Taos, New Mexico. 1973 California Crafts VIII, Crocker Art Gallery, Sacramento, California. 1974 California Ceramics...
