Lucie Rie (1902-1995, Austrian/British) Large porcelain footed bowl (circa 1982) Porcelain bowl, of flared conical form, in matt white glaze, decorated with bands of pink double concentric lines inside and out, raised on a high foot, with LR seal mark, 21 cm. diam. From the collection of the late Maurice Costley See the similar bowl in the sale: Lucie Rie and Hans Coper, Exceptional Ceramics: Selections from the Estate of Jane Coper and the former Collection of Cyril Frankel, Phillips, London, 1 November 2023, lot 404. Lucie Rie (1902-1995) was born in Vienna and developed an interest in the decorative arts from a young age, studying under the Head of Ceramics, Michael Powolny, at the Vienna Kunstgewerbeschule. She later opened her own studio, to great acclaim, becoming a much sought-after ceramicist, exhibiting at the Paris International Exhibition in 1925 and wining a gold medal at the Brussels International Exhibition in 1935. Rie fled the approaching Nazi occupation, establishing herself as a Jewish émigré in London in 1938. She initially created glass and ceramic buttons for the Orplid Glass Studio, although she is most well-known for her collaborations with Hans Coper (1920-1981), a German émigré, whom she hired as a studio assistant in 1946. The partnership was a fruitful one; Coper was a huge inspiration for Rie, championing her experimentation and love of modernism. She continued to experiment with glazes, enamel colours and forms throughout her long career. Provenance Acquired from Peter Dingley Gallery, Stratford-upon-Avon, United Kingdom. Condition ReportOverall in good order. There is a very minor, shallow footrim chip at the edge of the footim and a very minute footrim chip beside this, please see additional image. There is some typical and relatively minor pitting and sanding to the glaze, the pink bands have bled somewhat, as is the case with other bowls with this type of decoration. This has been inspected under UV light and there is no restoration or damage is visible.

The principal condition issue is damage to three cup handles. These, and the more minor issues, are listed in more detail below. Coffee-pot: There is a shallow chip to the underside of the upper part of beak of the bird spout – this is minor and because of its location, it is not noticeable. There is a narrow chip to the tip and side of the finial on the cover – this has been gilded, possibly from the time of manufacture. Teapot: There are two small firing faults to the cover – these date from the time of manufacture. Sugar-bowl: There is a minute flake to one of the gilt scenes. Coffee-cans: Nine of these are in good and useable condition (on one of the nine there is short crack to the upper part of one handle – this is minor, and the cup is useable). There are three cups with condition faults - one handle has been restuck, another handle has been broken off into two sections and one handle has been crudely restored and overpainted. Saucers: There is a rim chip with an associated hairline crack to the border of one of the saucers.
