Tomas Anagrius - Vase - 306 - Stoneware

Large sculptural bird vase in stoneware, made by the Swedish potter Tomas Anagrius in the 1960s. Tomas Anagrius (born 1939) is a Swedish ceramicist trained at Konstfack, then at Rörstrand and Gustavsberg, before opening his own studio. This 25 cm tall piece stands out for its highly stylized zoomorphic form: the cylindrical vase extends into a long neck forming the bird’s head. The natural-brown stoneware contrasts with a textured turquoise blue glaze. The front face features an important circular geometric incised decoration, composed of two rows of relief motifs outlined by a glossy dark brown glaze. The whole offers a very beautiful contrast of materials and colors, typical of 1960s Scandinavian modernist ceramics. The piece is wheel-thrown and bears under the base: – the incised signature T. Anagrius – the stamp HANDDREJAD ("hand thrown") – the model number 306 – an old label Pörslin Ericsson, Lund. Very good vintage condition. No chips or cracks visible. The slight surface irregularities are characteristic of artisanal craftsmanship.
