This beautiful Ken Ferguson bowl has a beautiful glaze and is in perfect condition. It is stamped with his signature F on the side. It measures 11.75" x 4.5" and has a pour spout. Ferguson's pottery is renowned for being both functional and aestically pleasing. Ken Ferguson (1928-2004) began as a strictly functional potter. Now, forty years later, his work is still rooted in utility, but his platters, teapots and jars have evolved into new beings entirely. Teapot handles soar vigorously upward, thick platters blossom with gestural drawings, and jars slump and stretch, melting out of their utilitarian past into a new dimension. These dynamic forms are complimented by Ferguson’s exploration of figurative elements. Hares arch through basket handles, foxes perch on the lids of jars, and mermaids sprawl over the surfaces of plates and platters. In all this work, Ferguson draws freely from the forms and motifs of potters throughout history, using ceramic tradition to enhance and enrich a body of work that is uniquely his. His work can be found in numerous museums and collections across the country.
