Story behind the januaryauction

theo colenbrander (1841-1930)

It's the January auction again and so, as you are used to, we have a beautiful collection of pottery from Theo Colenbrander.

The originality of his sketches for ceramics, carpets, interior designs and book and magazine covers can be traced back to the person himself. Colenbrander was an idiosyncratic person. Trained as an architect but working as a supervisor and technical draftsman, at the age of 44 he chose the uncertain existence of a decorative artist.

As an artistic visionary, he often came into conflict with directors responsible for business policy. For example, his employment as artistic director at Rozenburg and Zuid-Holland ended with a fight. At the Gouda pottery factory in South Holland, his involvement as a designer of new patterns on existing pottery was limited to one year (1912-1913).

Colenbrander made approximately sixty different shapes for RAM – a reference to the constellation – on which he drew around seven hundred sets. His starting point was nature, especially flora, in which he abstracted plant and flower forms. The background (residual form) - varying from cream to semolina shade - was also essential for his design.
