Manufacturer: Win Ng, enamelist
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. A Chinese American gay artist, 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 bowl has a deep blue and gold flecked background onto which various sizedjewels in shades of cobalt blue, orange, yelow and light blue have been added. The rim the natural copper color. The back was left in its original copper with no counter-enameling and carries his cursive Win Ng signature as well as what I suposse are the Chinese characters for his name. The piece is signed San Francisco across the top of the back, much like the way pioneer California enamelist Jade Snow Wong signed her pieces. The piece is in very good condition and a good early example of Win Ng's career. Add it to your Mid Century enamel collection today. |
