Description
This rare, handcrafted vase by Jonathan Adler exemplifies his early studio practice, before his designs became widely produced.
The form features a generous rounded base tapering into a tall, cylindrical neck—an elegant yet grounded silhouette. Its volcanic, cratered glaze surface in muted ash-grey tones creates a tactile and organic presence, evoking both mid-century studio pottery traditions and Adler’s playful, experimental approach to texture. Unlike his polished production pieces, this one-of-a-kind vase bears the marks of the hand, making it a true collector’s item that bridges functional object and sculptural artwork.
