Description: Offering this exceptional lidded jar crafted by the acclaimed mid-century ceramicist Philip Cornelius. Created around 1968, this one-of-a-kind stoneware jar is a remarkable example of Cornelius's innovative artistry and skill. Adorned with a beautiful jade-green glaze, this jar features charming decorations of white foxes and stars, evoking a sense of warmth and nostalgia. This jar is more than just a functional item; it is a sentimental work and a wonderful addition to any collection or designed space. Philip Cornelius, born in 1934 in San Bernardino, California, was a pioneer in the world of ceramics. With a Master of Fine Arts from Claremont Graduate University, he was known for his groundbreaking slab-built porcelain vessels, which he referred to as "thinware". Cornelius's work has been celebrated in numerous prestigious collections, including the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and the Smithsonian American Art Museum, affirming his legacy as a significant figure in modern ceramics. Jar measures 6 ½” high and 6” wide and is in great condition, with no post-firing damage, cracks, or chips. It does have two small blemishes in the glaze from the firing process, adding to its character and authenticity. Signed on the bottom. Work from this period is exceedingly rare and difficult to find.
