Ceramics, Metal and Glass

More from the Cincinnati Art Museum.


 Both of the above pieces are from Iran.  I saw many blue lions in the Iran Art section.
Lions represented royalty and strength and are oftentimes depicted with the sun.
I am still researching the blue lion to see what significance the color plays, if any.



 The two above images are Chinese glass bowls.  I was drawn to the
creamy colors.  They also reminded me of FireKing ceramics
and 1960's Tupperware (see below).

This contemporary ceramic piece is my current favorite.
