About this seller
Private sellerProduct description
This is a Brutalist art bowl, crafted by the Belgian artist Jan Cobbaert. The piece is a characteristic example of his ceramic work from the 1960s, a period in which he experimented with expressive forms and textures. The bowl combines a rough, sculptural exterior with a vibrantly glazed interior, creating a powerful visual contrast. The bowl is made of ceramic, with an unglazed, earth-colored base bearing the artist's signature. The interior is finished with a deep red, glossy glaze with a speckled effect and an abstract, black central motif. The dark, almost black outer rim is decorated with a repetitive relief of stylized figures, enhancing the object's Brutalist aesthetic. This work is a unique, handmade piece. The overall condition of the bowl is good and consistent with its age and the nature of the material. The glaze is intact and retains its deep color and shine, while the exterior has the original rough texture intended by the artist. The signature 'Cobbaert' is clearly legible on the bottom, confirming the authenticity of the work. With its strong artistic appeal, this object functions both as a functional bowl and as an autonomous work of art. It fits perfectly into an interior with a preference for Mid-Century Modern, Brutalist, or eclectic design elements, where it can serve as a striking centerpiece on a sideboard, console, or coffee table.
