Hidden Treasures on the Brick Road 10003 270th St NW, Stanwood, WA 98292 Open: Fridays 1pm - 4pm & Saturdays 1pm - 6pm Length (inches): 12.50 Width (inches): 12.50 Height (inches): 2.00 This striking vintage studio pottery plate features a hand-painted design of a black antelope beneath a barren tree with a mountain rising in the background. Rendered in bold brushwork against a marbled red, tan, and earthy-toned clay surface, the piece has a rustic, almost primitive style that blends modernist abstraction with traditional pottery techniques. The reverse shows a natural unglazed clay base with visible firing marks and an old inventory sticker, emphasizing its handmade character. Measuring 12.5 inches in diameter, this charger was likely made as a decorative wall or table display piece rather than for practical dining use. Its unique glaze swirls and hand-painted imagery give it a one-of-a-kind appeal that makes it ideal for collectors of studio pottery or those seeking a dramatic statement piece for home décor.
