Dmais – Marajoara-Inspired Design, c. 1960s This striking mid-century studio pottery bowl exemplifies the refined modernist ceramics produced in Brazil during the postwar period. Attributed to Dmais, the piece draws direct inspiration from ancient Marajoara design traditions, reinterpreted through a contemporary, wheel-thrown form. The bowl features a warm honey-glazed interior contrasted by a slip-decorated exterior adorned with rhythmic geometric and curvilinear motifs. The decoration references pre-Columbian Marajoara visual language while maintaining the clean balance and restraint associated with Brazilian modernist studios of the 1950s–1970s. A hand-trimmed, unglazed foot with visible kiln wear further confirms its studio origins and period authenticity. Both functional and sculptural, this piece works equally well as a decorative centerpiece or as part of a curated collection of mid-century or Latin American modern ceramics. Details • Origin: Brazil • Maker: Dmais (attributed) • Date: circa 1960s • Medium: Hand-thrown ceramic with slip decoration and clear glaze • Condition: Excellent vintage condition with light, honest kiln wear to the base A compelling example of mid-century Brazilian studio pottery that bridges ancient cultural influence and modern design sensibility. *certificate of authenticity provided Dimensions: 6”W-6”D-4”H Pickup category timeslot {A}
