Description

A small vintage studio pottery art vase, by Carn Pottery, Penzance, Cornwall from the 1970s or so… 

Carn Pottery was John Beusmans; he used muted matt blue, brown and green washes over a pale neutral-toned clays and is best known for his geometric Cubist or angular pieces. 
John was inspired by the Cornish sea and landscapes with primitive Celtic/Runic Studio Pottery designs. 

This vase is a geometric straight-sided and angled block vase. 
The outers of this vase were probably moulded, then different contrasting decors were hand applied. 
One side has a blue circles design, scribbles to the sides and grape vines to the back.
It has muted pale greeny earthy toned wash, with the blue wash. 
A pale fine cream clay sculpture with a glossy glazed inner. 
It has a Carn Pottery stamp to the base.
Handmade.

Very good condition with no chips or nibbles.
