Beschreibung:

Lucie Rie Vase, flattened cylindrical form with integral blue and white spiral circa 1967 Mixed clays producing an integral spiral beneath white glaze. 19.8 cm (7 3/4 in.) high Impressed with artist's seal and inventory labels.
Literature Tony Birks, Lucie Rie Catrine, 2009, p. 179 for a similar example Artist Bio Lucie Rie Austrian • 1902 - 1995 Dame Lucie Rie studied under Michael Powolny at the Kunstgewerbeschule in Vienna before immigrating to London in 1938. In London she started out making buttons for the fashion industry before producing austere, sparsely decorated tableware that caught the attention of modernist interior decorators. Eventually she hit her stride with the pitch-perfect footed bowls and flared vases for which she is best-known today. She worked in porcelain and stoneware, applying glaze directly to the unfired body and firing only once. She limited decoration to incised lines, subtle spirals and golden manganese lips, allowing the beauty of her thin-walled vessels to shine through. In contrast with the rustic pots of English ceramicist Bernard Leach who is considered an heir to the Arts and Crafts movement, collectors and scholars revere Rie for creating pottery that was in dialogue with the design and architecture of European Modernism.
