Brutalist Studio Pottery Large Double Opening Vase, 1967 cigar chest I believe the bristles areThis tall double opening vase, with fantastically textural surface, has quite an presence! It's as much a sculpture as a vessel, and I'd call it Brutalist unapologetically bold and rough and all about its materiality but also rather playful about it function as a vase. Really a terrific piece that would command attention wherever it is placed. Signed what looks to be Dom Denisi on the bottom and dated 7 14 67. There is a bit of chipping around the rim
