Exceptional vintage four-piece nesting kitchen canister set with matching lids, handcrafted by iconic regional artisan Colin Oliver at Oliver Pottery in Coonabarabran, New South Wales. This complete set highlights classic Australian studio pottery design, featuring a smooth, high-gloss tenmoku black glaze across the upper shoulders and lids that blends into a deeply tactile, unglazed chiseled chevron/basketweave texture along the main body.
Quantity: 4 graduated nesting storage jars with original matching lids
Condition Note:
Good vintage pre-owned condition overall with some signs of age. Please note the following cosmetic flaws: There is a small surface glaze nick on the glossy upper shoulder of one canister, a small chip/glaze flake on the unglazed inner seating rim where the lid sits, and some minor flea bites/rough spots to the unglazed textured bottom portions (documented in close-up photos). These imperfections are typical for rustic studio earthenware of this era, do not compromise the structural integrity of the jars, and the inner lid wear is completely hidden from view during display. No deep cracks or structural damage. Please review all photos carefully.
Approx Dimensions:
22cm x 16cm
