MARGE MARGULIES

California ceramic artist Marge Margulies has been working as a studio potter for more than 30 years. A deep appreciation for the colors and classic forms of the mid-century aesthetic has led to inventive updates and stylish re-interpretations that form a very recognizable personal imprint.

Expressive and sculptural vessels, functional and decorative centerpieces, and a glorious celebration of the dinner table best describe this colorful, ever evolving, and joyous body of ceramic work.

Each piece is thrown on the wheel, then a series of hand processes are used to alter the shapes. Colored glazes are applied in various ways to achieve lively, unusual and satisfying color groupings and deliciously soft surfaces. The intention is to make pieces that are evenly thrown and feel lightweight and balanced.
