Manufacturer: Win Ng, San Francisco CA
Made by well-known San Francisco artist Win Ng and signed with his name and San Francisco, this beautiful 4 inch wide low bowl is a masterpiece of enamel. Both Asian and Gay, Win Ng (1936-1991) was the subject of a recent 2005 retrospective at the Chinese Historical Society of America.
Win Ng worked in enamel early on in his career. His primary work was in ceramics and fine art. He later partnered with Taylor to create the well-loved and collectible series of Animal Orgy mugs as well as high end kitcheware which carried the Taylor Ng mark.
This particular 9 1/2 inch wide bowl has a green blue oilspot background onto which jewels in two colors of cobalt blue and deep red have been added. The rim was done in a dark chocolate brown color. The back was left in its original copper with no counter-enameling and carries his cursive signature and San Francisco along with the numbers SB9 indicating it size I assume. The piece is in excellent condition and a good early example of Win Ng's career. Add it to your Mid Century enamel collection today. |
