<p>[QUOTE="aaroncab, post: 275105, member: 3974"]One of the first pieces I ever bought for myself - never really researched it until tonight. I've found the signature looks very much like that of Harald Folmer Gross - mid century Danish ceramic designer / decorator. Although the signature is similar, this piece is very simple and unglazed / undecorated and doesn't look like a production piece. Thoughts on if this is his signature? It's about 10" in diameter and roughly spherical.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks again!</p><p><br /></p><p>Here's some examples of his signature:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.ca/itm/AN-EXQUISITE-LARGE-VASE-BY-HARALD-FOLMER-GROSS-FOR-KNABSTRUP-DANISH-POTTERY-2/330941078599" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.ca/itm/AN-EXQUISITE-LARGE-VASE-BY-HARALD-FOLMER-GROSS-FOR-KNABSTRUP-DANISH-POTTERY-2/330941078599" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.ca/itm/AN-EXQUISITE-LARGE-VASE-BY-HARALD-FOLMER-GROSS-FOR-KNABSTRUP-DANISH-POTTERY-2/330941078599</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.lauritz.com/Item/ItemImage/ItemImagePage.aspx?LotId=2978576&ImageHex=1A998BA44001DE219DBB8CA5064E2706&LanguageId=1" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.lauritz.com/Item/ItemImage/ItemImagePage.aspx?LotId=2978576&ImageHex=1A998BA44001DE219DBB8CA5064E2706&LanguageId=1" rel="nofollow">http://www.lauritz.com/Item/ItemImage/ItemImagePage.aspx?LotId=2978576&ImageHex=1A998BA44001DE219DBB8CA5064E2706&LanguageId=1</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/decorative-objects/vases-vessels/vases/large-pottery-vase-harald-folmer-gross-knabstrup/id-f_158818/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/decorative-objects/vases-vessels/vases/large-pottery-vase-harald-folmer-gross-knabstrup/id-f_158818/" rel="nofollow">https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/decorative-objects/vases-vessels/vases/large-pottery-vase-harald-folmer-gross-knabstrup/id-f_158818/</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.lauritz.com/en/auction/harald-folmer-gross-knabstrup-teglvaerk-vase-af-keramik-med/i3385444/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.lauritz.com/en/auction/harald-folmer-gross-knabstrup-teglvaerk-vase-af-keramik-med/i3385444/" rel="nofollow">http://www.lauritz.com/en/auction/harald-folmer-gross-knabstrup-teglvaerk-vase-af-keramik-med/i3385444/</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.ca/itm/AN-EXQUISITE-LARGE-VASE-BY-HARALD-FOLMER-GROSS-FOR-KNABSTRUP-DANISH-POTTERY-2/330941078599" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.ca/itm/AN-EXQUISITE-LARGE-VASE-BY-HARALD-FOLMER-GROSS-FOR-KNABSTRUP-DANISH-POTTERY-2/330941078599" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.ca/itm/AN-EXQUISITE-LARGE-VASE-BY-HARALD-FOLMER-GROSS-FOR-KNABSTRUP-DANISH-POTTERY-2/330941078599</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Information about Harald and many examples of work (in Dutch):</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://knabstrup-specialisten.dk/keramik-hfg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://knabstrup-specialisten.dk/keramik-hfg" rel="nofollow">http://knabstrup-specialisten.dk/keramik-hfg</a></p><p><br /></p><p>~</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]87444[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]87445[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]87446[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]87447[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]87448[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
