Mid-Century Black and Brown Studio Pottery Double Vase broccoli Kelly was known for studiesThis unique and substantial studio pottery double vase would make a great addition to any collection of mid century ceramics. Bold, earthy, and organic, it is beautifully made and has a great presence as much as a sculpture as a functional vase. Brutalist in sensibility, I presume it dates from the late 60s or so, and is signed "Graf" on the bottom. The piece measures 7 long x 6. 5" tall x 3. 75" wide and is in great condition.
