Beautiful hanging bird bath by noted Californian ceramicist, Stan Bitters. Plastic cords are attached at three points on the dish and meet in a clay disk at the middle of the cords. Each plastic cord is adorned with a clay ball and a cast clay bird at each base. Bath has an inviting blue glazed interior where the water is held. Good condition as shown. Matching bird feeder available in separate listing.
As a pioneer of the organic modernist craft movement in the 1960s, Bitters has been producing rough-hewn ceramic birdhouses, planters, pedestals, mural tiles, totems, boulder walls, and fountains for more than half a century. He has mesmerized architects, landscapers, and collectors from the start but was recently discovered by a hip new audience. Actress Cameron Diaz has a Bitters water wall at her beach house, and Commune commissioned him to create a group of two-story fireplaces that are focal points at the Ace Hotel.
