Vintage Blue Rumrill Ceramic Vase. Measures about 7.5" in height. Very good condition.
This vintage Rumrill vase is a magnificent specimen of American art pottery, representing the collaboration between George Rumrill and the master potters of the mid-century era. Standing seven and a half inches tall, this piece is finished in a striking "Rumrill Blue"—a deep, saturated hue that was a hallmark of the company’s sophisticated palette. The glaze has a satin-like quality, absorbing and reflecting light in a way that emphasizes the vase’s graceful, tapered form and clean architectural lines.
With its bold color and historic pedigree, this vase serves as a premier "scholarly curiosity" for a library shelf or a Mid-Century Modern mantel. It functions beautifully as a sculptural pop of color among leather-bound volumes or alongside a collection of natural specimens. The vase is in very good condition, with the ceramic body remaining sound and the glaze free of significant crazing or chips. As Rumrill pottery was often produced by legendary houses like Red Wing or Shawnee, this piece carries a legacy of superior craftsmanship and timeless design. It is a significant find for collectors of American art pottery or anyone looking to add a touch of "Space Age" elegance and artisan history to their interior.
This item is vintage, approximately 85 years old.
