  • Large Edwin and Mary Scheier Stoneware Bowl, circa 1950s
    By Edwin and Mary Scheier
    Located in Chicago, IL
    This exceptional early stoneware ceramic bowl is a timeless masterpiece by the celebrated American potters, Edwin and Mary Scheier. Crafted with sublime skill in the 1950s, it exemplifies their unique blend of form, function, and artistic storytelling. The impressive size of the bowl, measuring 15.75” in diameter and 8” high, immediately commands attention. The exterior, coated in a rich, dark raisin / plum glaze, introduces a depth of color that is both captivating and luxurious. The interior surprises with a contrasting tan flecked glaze, adding a layer of visual intrigue to the piece. Elevating the bowl beyond the realm of the ordinary is the Scheiers' iconic design of interlinked figures. These celestial-inspired figures are artfully rendered, flush with the glaze, creating a dynamic tableau that wraps around the bowl. These figures, emblematic of the Scheiers' exploration of human connectivity and mysticism, add a profound narrative element to the work. Further enhancing its aesthetic appeal, horizontal ribs cascade down the bowl, becoming more pronounced towards the foot. This clever design feature not only adds a tactile dimension to the bowl but also amplifies the visual drama of the piece. The base is incised with 'Scheier', a testament to its authenticity and pedigree. Though undated, this piece is clearly from the Scheiers' most influential period, making it a valuable addition to any ceramics collection. This bowl is more than just a vessel; it's a testament to the Scheiers' artistic journey and a symbol of their enduring impact on American ceramics...
