This charming handmade persimmon vase, created and designed by Alex Curtis who is one of 8 master potters at Ephraim Faience Pottery, is a masterful blend of past and present inspiration. The piece is characterized by its sweeping high-relief sculpting and fruit-framing cutouts, which showcase the intersection of traditional and contemporary design elements. The flowing and expressive chestnut and indigo glazes, indicative of Ephraim’s art pottery, are complemented by the precise sprayed glazes that accent the persimmons. This anniversary design encapsulates both enduring tradition and forward-thinking experimentation, making it a stand-out piece. Ephraim Faience Pottery is an American art pottery company founded in 1996 in Wisconsin by Kevin Hicks, specializing in pottery inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement of the early 20th century.
