Elongated Serving Platter in Hand-Painted Ceramic by Jurg Lanrein
Elongated Serving Platter in Hand-Painted Ceramic by Jurg Lanrein
This beautiful elongated modernist serving platter was realized by the esteemed artist Jurg Lanrein in Switzerland during the latter half of the 20th century. It offers a rectangular form with raised sides and hand embellished organic striations running lengthwise from end to end. Reminiscent of a deconstructed Morris Louis painting, the piece offers a lively and surprising palate with hues of emerald, sunflower yellow, aubergine and peach. With its austere form, clean modernist lines and beautiful quality of construction, this piece would be a winning addition to any style of interior from classic Mid Century Modern to contemporary. This piece is as much a functional serving piece, as an objet d'art that promises to add more than a touch of sophistication to any surface that it graces. It is signed on the back by the artist and is in excellent vintage condition.
