Description
From my own private collection comes this very hard to find & rare piece of Canadian art pottery from Vancouver. Signed by the artist & illustrator, Zuzy Vacek, this is a whimsical animated piece of pottery sure to brighten up the decor. First of all, it is not perfect. It has a little chunk chipped off of it on the rim. I am selling this AS IS. Despite the fact that this is not a perfect piece, I have honestly just loved it & have used it as a little trinket dish for my hair ties. Originally meant to be a cat bowl it is marked on the side as such & it features a whimsical blue cat pouncing across the top. The artist put her signature on the inside of the bowl & on the underside it signed by Daniel Materna Ceramics, a Canadian company out of Vancouver on Granville Island. This studio has been making incredible one of a kind creations since the 1980s. It is made of a heavy ceramic material & weighs about a pound & a half before it's even packed up. It measures approximately 6 inches in diameter, has a curved interior & is about 2 inches tall. It's very well-made. Because the bowl is not perfect I would assess this as fair condition. Other than the chipped area mentioned, it is free of additional damage or repair or post-production issues. If this damaged area is bothersome to you, you should probably pass on this piece. Again, please note that I am selling this item as is/as found. & it is priced accordingly based on condition. Please make sure to view all the photos & zoom in for details. Pictures are an important part of the description, & it's assumed you have already viewed them all before purchasing. Unlike brand new merchandise, my items are vintage & antique & will often show signs of age & use. Unless otherwise noted, my items are sold as found, just like I received them. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions about this or anything else in my shop. Shipping is generally nonrefundable & it includes insurance. I'm happy to offer free local pickup if you're in the ATL Ga area. Vtg Daniel Materna Ceramics Cat Feeding Dish Bowl Animated Canadian Art Pottery Zuzy Vacek Anthropomorphic Blue Kitty As Is
