FILLOUS Art Pottery Bowl – Could the artist be a student of Viktor Schreckengost?
I found this bowl at a thrift shop. I loved it the moment I picked it up.
I was especially attracted to the midcentury vibes it was sending my way.
I was intrigued. So, I bought it.
If you love art pottery history, you’ll be intrigued too.
Let the research begin!
The bowl is 11” in diameter and 2.75” tall with matte and glossy blue and matte beige and brown glazes.
The middle interior with blue glossy and brown matte glazes has an incised abstract design and more incised decorations around the interior perimeter of the bowl. The bottom has the blue matte glaze and the outside rim has a layer of blue glossy glaze.
It is inscribed “FILLOUS” on the bottom in the clay in upper case letters.
