This gorgeous ceramic vessel by Claude Conover is a true work of art. The piece features intricate details and unique textures that make it a stunning addition to any collection. The artist's signature and title, Hoplac, add to the value and authenticity of the vase. Its neutral beige color and Zen design make it a versatile piece that can be displayed in any home or office. The vase was produced using Conover's unique art pottery technique, which adds to its charm and uniqueness. This vessel measures approximately 20 1/4" x 17 1/2".

Conover (1907-1994) worked for 30 years as a commercial designer before turning to ceramics full time in the 1960s, which this vessel dates to. During his lifetime, his hand built stoneware pots were exhibited in museums, galleries and arts centers around the United States. He was a member of the Cleveland School and his work has become highly sought after and collectible, posthumously.

There is a candle in the bottom of the vessel, as shown in photos. A visiting child dropped it in there, and it will be removed prior to shipping.
