Summer Afternoon


A Collection of Roseville Tourmaline Ceramics at LEO Design

“Summer afternoon—summer afternoon;  to me those have always been the two most beautiful words in the English language.” – Henry James

Let’s savor the final weeks of summer with this particularly summery collection of Roseville Tourmaline art pottery.  The mottled blue glazing—which remind me of a Frank Benson summer sky—seems restful, gentle and, sadly, fleeting (like a perfect summer afternoon). Luckily, these pieces, made in Ohio in the 1930’s, display their perfect summer skyscape, every day of the year—no matter the weather outside.
