Mid Century Hand-built Studio Pottery Tall Single Stem Vase victorian chess set This very finely hand-embroidered textileA tall, sculptural, hand built studio pottery vase with wheel thrown neck, c. 1960s 70s I believe, signed Trapp on the underside. I love this sort of earthy modern pottery, which perhaps one might also call Brutalist, and myself am often in want of a vessel good for just one long stalk of something. With painterly deep blue glazing on one side, and drippy white on the reverse. 14 1 4" x 3 1 4" x 1 7 8". Excellent condition, no chips, cracks or other
