Robert Maxwell Signed Large Mid-Century Modern California Studio Pottery Charger
Located in Studio City, CA
A wonderfully made and beautifully designed Mid-Century Modern pottery charger by famed California potter and sculptor Robert Maxwell.
Maxwell co-founded Earthgender pottery with fellow potter David Cressey.
This charger/platter was made at his Venice beach, California Pottery studio in the early 1960s as verified by his wife. It is a very rare piece in respect to design, pattern, and sheer Size/heft (it is a very heavy work). We have not seen another quite like it.
Apparently, he only made a few with some filled with melted glass to create the design/pattern.
Signed by Maxwell on the base.
Would clearly be a great addition to any mid-century pottery/ceramics collection...

18th Century Silk Embroidered Nautical Scene, HOPE
Located in Nantucket, MA
18th century George III silk embroidered nautical scene, circa 1780, a refined picture made by hand-embroidered silk on silk, with hand painted details, depicting a version of the Classic "Sailor's Farewell" with a Patrician young lady standing on shore leaning against a fouled anchor, with a ship sailing away in the background with presumably her beau. The quality of the embroidery is exquisite as is typical with these early silks, and the painted details include very delicately done facial features, hair, arms and feet. The image is in an oval cartouche bordered by silk thread bound to resemble a braid of the lass' hair, and is placed above the embroidered legend "HOPE."
These silk embroideries are thought to be the work of young ladies, no doubt from the upper classes to be able to afford such a dear material (as opposed to the thread and linen used by the middle class gals in their much more common finishing school Samplers. Georgian embroideries most often depicted stylized mourning or genre scenes; nautical pictures are really quite scarce.
This is a lovely companion piece to another Georgian nautical silk embroidery we have listed.
Silk is extremely fragile and does not age well over the centuries, so this piece is actually in extremely good condition. There is some discoloration, mostly around the perimeter, probably due to sunlight o perhaps some water over the years. Between subject and condition, this is one of the best Georgian silk embroidery...

18th Century Silk Embroidered Nautical Scene
Located in Nantucket, MA
18th century George III silk embroidered nautical scene, circa 1780, a refined picture made by hand-embroidered silk on silk, with hand painted details, depicting a version of the Classic "Sailor's Farewell" with a Patrician young lady in melancholic pose on shore leaning against an anchor, gazing at a ship sailing away over the horizon with presumably her beau. The quality of the embroidery is exquisite as is typical with these early silks, and the painted details include very delicately done facial features and hair, as well as the wispy clouds in the blue sky.
These silk embroideries are thought to be the work of young ladies, no doubt from the upper classes to be able to afford such a dear material (as opposed to the thread and linen used by the middle class gals in their much more common finishing school Samplers. Georgian embroideries most often depicted stylized mourning or genre scenes; nautical pictures are really quite scarce. The ocean here is embroidered in a manner which seems reminiscent of Chinese Export work.
This is a lovely companion piece to another Georgian nautical silk embroidery we have listed.
Silk is extremely fragile and does not age well over the centuries, so this piece is actually in very good condition relative to most you would see. There are some rust stains coming through from nails in the mounting, several short tears from the backing, and some discoloration probably due to sunlight. Between subject and condition, it is probably the best Georgian silk embroidery...
