Tall elegant ornamental art vase or vessel by Thomas Naethe is turned on the wheel and assembled in porcelain. Although the work refers to vessel forms it is essentially sculptural in nature. Formal precision, harmony and clarity are words that are used to describe key qualities in the work. Inspiration is drawn from the tranquil rural environment of the Dauner Eifel region in which he lives. He uses a stoneware body for his work, which is wheel thrown and is assembled from three thrown forms. He uses slip, coloring salts and oxides for decoration where a monochromatic range of color tends to dominate. The inside is clear glazed Born in Berlin, Germany, he studied with Gisela Schliessler at Krösselbach from 1973-1976 and then trained at the Technical School for Ceramic Design. He teaches at the University of Cologne.
