This bowl exemplifies Nylund’s mid-century approach to ceramics, where glazes were integral to creating depth and texture, enhancing the simplicity of his elegant forms. The small, subtly raised foot gives the piece a light, floating quality—an element often found in Nylund’s work to heighten its sense of refinement.

His ceramics are distinguished by their organic, minimalist forms with sculptural qualities, rich and experimental glazes, and a balance between functionality and artistry, seamlessly bridging traditional craftsmanship with modernist aesthetics.
