Exquisite 1917 Signed Rookwood Pottery Vase by Charles Stewart Todd
A superb example of American Arts and Crafts ceramic excellence, this 1917 vase was designed and hand-carved by the renowned Rookwood artist Charles Stewart Todd (C.S.T.). Standing at an impressive 9.5 inches, this piece represents the pinnacle of the Mission-era aesthetic, characterized by its architectural form and masterful glaze work.
The vase features a sophisticated, moody color transition—a deep, saturated chocolate brown at the rim that flows into a vibrant, ethereal teal and forest green ombré toward the base. The shoulder is accented with Todd’s signature stylized floral carvings, which provide a crisp, tactile contrast to the smooth, matte-finished body.
Charles Stewart Todd was a master of the "Carved Matte" style, and his work from this period is highly coveted by collectors and designers alike for its ability to anchor a room with period-correct authenticity. Whether displayed in a traditional Craftsman interior or a modern eclectic space, this vase serves as a significant statement piece of American art history.
