Hello this wonderful Studio pottery Wall Hanging Charger was done by Michigan
Artist Terry Emrick. The piece measures about 21 inches in diameter and is
signed and dated on the back "TE 89". It is in excellent condition with light
signs of wear...that mean no chips cracks or visible repairs. It comes with an
info sheet on the artist's accomplishments on the back... It has an Art Deco
Revival look to it similar to pieces commemorating the World Fairs in the 1930's
or so. There is some overall craquelure glaze to it with irridescent metalic
highlights. Again it is 21 inches in diameter which is quite large. It makes for
a great Mid Century sculptural display on a piece of furniture a stand or
hanging on the wall. You decide... Please see photos as part of the description.

Biography: A Michigan native, Terry earned his MFA from Michigan State
University. Working as both a professor and potter throughout the 1970s and
1980s, Terry’s work evolved, becoming more sculptural in form and post-modern in
style. In the 1990s, after a brief stint in Florida, Terry settled in Maine
where he currently works and resides. His work has been shown all around the
country including at the Smithsonian Institute. Gleaned from the "Portsmouth
Herald".
