JOHN WARD (ENGLISH, 1938-2023) STUDIO POTTERY STONEWARE BOWL, rounded form with two sides slightly indented, featuring a matte green and white bull's eye design. Impressed "JW" to underside. Fourth quarter 20th/early 21st century. 6 5/8" H, 8 1/4" D rim.
Catalogue Note: Described as one of Britain's foremost potters, John Ward was born in Islington, North London, in 1938. Ward came to his career in ceramics later in life, having first worked as a cameraman at the BBC. Heavily influenced by the simple forms of ancient Chinese and Egyptian pottery, as well as the clean linear decoration of early Cypriot and Persian bowls, Ward constructed his pottery using the coiling method. Ward passed away on February 14 at the age of 84.
