Pisgah Forest turquoise over white, an Asian low bowl form, dated 1941.
A Pisgah Forest low bowl vase in turquoise blue and white, 3 inches high by 4 inches wide, dated 1941. Pisgah Forest Pottery of North Carolina is one of the most collected American art potteries, known for its crystalline and turquoise glazes and for marking and dating its work.
The low, wide Asian influenced bowl form was a favorite in American art pottery of the period, and it suits a flowing turquoise glaze because the color has a broad shoulder to run across before it reaches the foot. The white interior lifts the turquoise on the outside.
A dated 1941 Pisgah Forest piece in this palette sits squarely in the middle of what North Carolina art pottery collectors actively look for.
How to use and style it
- Float a single bloom or a few petals in it, which is exactly what these low bowls were designed for.
- Place it on a small wooden stand at eye level so the turquoise glaze and the dated base both get seen.
- Hand wash gently and keep it out of direct sun to protect the turquoise over decades.
