About the Item
A set of three unique hand formed ceramic sculptures of cubes with crater formed openings on two planes by Mobach Studio in the Netherlands in the 1980's. Mobach ceramics are produced by the best potters in Dutch 20th century history. The mauve and grey glazes accentuate the outlines and rough edges of the cracks.
From the 1895 Mobach has had a reputation for the production of unique ceramics, handmade with a modern design, made in either small batches or as a one-off. The ceramics are either thrown on the wheel or shaped by hand; the glazes through a chemical process in the firing change so that each ceramic is unique.
All ceramics get the Mobach stamp, and each one-off is signed by the maker.
Individual heights and widths; 18, 13.5, 10 cm.

Mobach
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.
