Brush McCoy Mid-Century Modern Green Matte Ribbed Ceramic Vase with Leaf Relief
This mid-century modern ceramic vase showcases a sculptural silhouette paired with elegant naturalistic detailing, making it a strong decorative statement for collectors of American studio and production pottery. Finished in a soft green matte glaze, the vase features a vertically ribbed, banded body that gently tapers upward to a wide, rounded rim and narrows toward a flared foot, creating a balanced and architectural profile.
What distinguishes this piece is the applied leaf relief motif along the lower portion of the body, lending an organic counterpoint to the structured ringed form. The matte glaze has a smooth, velvety surface that enhances the depth of the green tone while emphasizing the crisp contours of the ribbing and molded decoration. This combination of stylized botanical elements and clean mid-century lines is strongly reminiscent of American art pottery produced during the 1950sā1960s, particularly designs associated with Brush McCoy and related Ohio potteries.
The vase functions beautifully as a standalone sculptural object or as a display vessel for dried or fresh floral arrangements. It shows light age-related wear consistent with vintage ceramics but remains in very good display condition. A timeless decorative accent that embodies the enduring appeal of mid-century American ceramic design.
