GEORGE BLACKMAN 23” Raku Tall Vessel with Lid
SOLD
Crafted by Canadian-born George Blackman, this unique and highly colorful raku vessel with lid. Raku is a Japanese firing method for ceramics in which the potter removes the clay from the kiln when it’s glowing red hot. Combustibles are added to the vessel that ignite and allow the kiln fire to glide over the form, capturing the spontaneity of the fire playing on the piece and creating a one-of-a-kind ceramic piece. Ideal for the pottery enthusiast, this piece can serve as tabletop décor or to hold florals as a decorative vase.

Vintage NICODEMUS POTTERY “Christmas Card” Ornament
This ceramic ornament by Nicodemus Pottery is dated vintage to 1972 and depicts a shapely “Christmas card” complete with a charming holly motif. A lasting figure in the Columbus art scene, Chester Nicodemus (1901-1990) imbues a quaint and homespun quality onto this ornament, which has been left unpierced, meaning it was likely given away by the artist himself as a gift. This ceramic ornament is glazed in a glossy, translucent green and has been stamped and affixed with Nicodemus’ studio insignia en verso, ensuring its authenticity.
About the Artist:
Chester Nicodemus (1901-1990) was a Columbus, Ohio potter, sculptor, and teacher known for his small clay birds, as well as other wildlife, teapots and pitchers. His pieces are recognizable as being produced with variously colored translucent glazes, which enhanced the redness of the high iron content of Ohio clay to create a russet brown undertone. Nicodemus earned a degree from Cleveland Art School and then went on to teach at Dayton Art School and Wittenberg College. In 1932, he became dean at the Columbus College of Art and Design and later taught at The Ohio State University and served as president of the Columbus Art League. All of Nicodemus' molds and glazes were destroyed upon his death at his request.
