Josh DeWeese Art Pottery Clay Liquor Set - Handcrafted art pottery liquor set by American ceramic artist Josh DeWeese, featuring a sculptural ewer with four matching cups and a large serving tray. The pieces are finished in rich earthy ochre, amber, brown and olive glazes with expressive, textured surfaces and intentionally irregular hand-formed shapes. The ewer features a tall flared neck, curved spout and loop handle, while the cups have organic folded and overlapping forms. The tray has raised decorative handles and a dark glazed center. All pieces bear DeWeese's impressed mark. DeWeese is known for high-fired functional ceramics with fluid glazes, strong forms and surfaces that emphasize the natural character of clay and the firing process. Condition: Very good overall condition. Size: Ewer 7” tall. Tray 12 1/2” x 9”. Josh DeWeese (b. 1963, American) is a ceramic artist and educator born in Bozeman, Montana.
