Don Arthur Johns 1935-2017, Modernist Pottery

A striking example of mid-century modern ceramic design by Don Arthur Johns, an American potter known for his refined forms and expressive glazes. Created during the height of the Modernist studio pottery movement, this piece showcases Johns’ masterful balance of form and texture.

The vessel features clean architectural lines and a subtle, organic glaze palette—hallmarks of Johns’ signature style, which merges functional craftsmanship with sculptural presence. Each work by Johns reflects his dedication to hand-thrown techniques and an exploration of minimalist beauty rooted in the modern design ethos of the 1950s–1970s.

Each curve and subtle marking tells a story of the maker’s hand. No two piece alike on found items. All dimensions approximate.
