Description:
A Len Castle crater lake bowl, matte grey stained earthenware exterior and alkaline blue glaze to the interior. A gift to the vendor from a former New Zealand Prime Minister. The work perfectly encapsulates Castle's unrivalled skill, the balanced, elegant form juxtaposes the rawness of the bowl's rim and the precisely-sculpted cavetto. Thrown at the latter end of his distinguished career, this example embodies his full control as a practitioner in all areas of his craft, depth 44.5 cm
