In the 1950s, Los Angeles-based artists Evelyn and Jerome Ackerman were instrumental in defining the look of California ceramics and design. A reproduction of a 2008 design by Jerome Ackerman, this terracotta vase is handcrafted to faithfully re-create the detailing of his original work. Each vase is shaped by hand and dried in the sun and baked in a wood-fired kiln. Then, each motif is carefully crafted to precisely replicate the Ackermans' beloved design for a new generation of midcentury enthusiasts. Display it on its own or with dried florals arranged within. CB2 exclusive.Detroit native Jerome Ackerman founded ERA Industries in 1956 with his wife, Evelyn. For 50 years, the Los Angeles-based couple played a central role in shaping the California midcentury modern movement. Ackerman's first woven tapestry design was featured on the cover of the Los Angeles Times Home Magazine in 1957. Presented in collaboration with Ackerman Modern, the pieces in this collection recreate the couple's iconic midcentury designs using original drawings and archival photographs.
