"Wheat Harvest, " Unique Art Deco Vase with Semi-Nude Worker by Nylund, Sweden
About the Item
Created in 1934 and commissioned by Från Nyman as a gift to Eric Tiblom, this unique vase depicts a shirtless farmworker using his scythe to cut wheat in a field, all glazed in warm, earthy tones: ruddy, burnt sienna, chocolate brown and ivory. The vase is a superb example of the Art Deco porcelains designed by Gunnar Nylund in what he called a "flambe" glaze: rich browns or blue-grays highlighted with gold. Nylund worked at the famed Rorstrand porcelain works in Sweden from 1931-1958; and in his later years he became known for his organic forms and mottled glazes.
