Walt Glass “Texas Sunset” Drip-Glazed Lidded Soup Tureen – Signed Art Pottery

Beautiful, hand-crafted lidded soup tureen by renowned Texas potter Walt Glass, signed on the base and featuring his iconic “Texas Sunset” drip glaze pattern. This striking, functional art piece showcases Glass’s signature blend of rustic Southwestern tones—earthy beige, rich cobalt blue, and a streak of rusty red—evoking the dramatic skies of the Lone Star State. Measuring approximately 10 inches in diameter and 4–5 inches deep, this large serving bowl includes a fitted lid with a spoon rest slot—ideal for soups, stews, or as a decorative centerpiece. The form is both practical and sculptural, with expressive glazing and dynamic color contrast that reflects the high-fire stoneware technique Glass is known for. The glossy finish on the blue areas contrasts beautifully with the matte speckled beige, enhancing its visual appeal. Walt Glass, a master potter based in Texas, was active primarily from the 1970s through the early 2000s and is known for his meticulous craftsmanship and bold glazing. His works have been collected by celebrities and pottery enthusiasts alike. This piece likely dates from the late 1980s to early 1990s, when his “Texas Sunset” series was at its peak popularity. Excellent condition with no chips or cracks. A rare opportunity to own a functional piece of collectible studio pottery. Ships securely and professionally packaged.
