Harris Cies Studio Pottery Tray Purple Floral Sun Moon Stars Ceramic Dish 13.5"L

Description: Harris Cies Studio Pottery Tray Purple Floral Sun Moon Stars Ceramic Dish 13.5"L This gorgeous asymmetrical ceramic tray or dish is the work of Barbara Harris & Sandy Cies of the Harris-Cies pottery studio. It features a "cutout" edge oblong shaped shallow boat style dish or tray profile decorated in hand-painted layers of colorful forms including what appears to be subtle abstract celestial designs in the back including what I interpret as the moon, sun, and stars along with 2 contrasting white flowers, one being what appears to be a Gerber Daisy. Will blend perfectly in collections containing Memphis School style pottery, retro, Modernist, eclectic and more. Please keep in mind that the colors might appear different on your device screen than they actually are in person due to lighting...for reference, the dark color running around the edge of the form is purple with hints of blue. It does have light wear and artist studio original blemishes so please read complete details below and review photos closely for condition. Thank you and enjoy!
