Mid-Century Israeli Studio Ceramic Planters, Model 109, Set of Two, 1960s

This set of two mid-century Israeli studio ceramic planters dates to the 1960s and reflects the earthy, sculptural language of the period’s modernist pottery. Each piece is hand-thrown with a distinctive tripod base and loop handle, finished in a rich iron-brown glaze accented by a creamy, lava-like band that pools naturally along the rim. Subtle variations in form and glaze reveal their handcrafted origin, giving the pair an organic, almost architectural presence. Both functional and decorative, these ceramics work beautifully as planters, candle holders, mugs, bowls or standalone sculptural objects, embodying the raw materiality and restrained elegance that define Israeli studio ceramics of the era.
