Vase 1892 - 1902

This double-spouted vase, created between 1892 and 1902 by George E. Ohr, is a fine example of American art pottery. Ohr's signature style is evident in the unique form and intricate speckled glaze of the vessel. This piece showcases Ohr's mastery of the potter's wheel and the unpredictable nature of his glazes. Known as the "Mad Potter of Biloxi," Ohr's work is celebrated for its bold originality and technical virtuosity. The vase's asymmetrical design, coupled with the vibrant and unpredictable glaze, creates a dynamic visual experience that exemplifies the creative spirit of the late 19th century. This captivating work is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
