Architectural Pottery
by Vessel® USA
--
Whenever you see trees or
plants in white cylinders -- in
homes or office buildings or
at gasoline stations -- it is
because of Architectural
Pottery. The company’s
Introduction of large modernist
vessels in 1950 helped fulfill
one of the major goals of
Mid-century Modern
architecture, breaking down
the barrier between interior
and exterior space. Now,
Architectural Pottery’s
earthenware vessels are
back in production. Both
practical and sculptural,
they are equally suited for
indoor and outdoor use.

Clay Canvases
These and seven other paintings
on ceramic, were created by
the widely honored
Chinese-American painter
Tyrus Wong for the Museum
of California Design.They are
the only paintings on ceramic
the artist has done since
he worked for Winfield (later
Gabriel) Porcelain of Pasadena
the 1940s and 50s.
