Description
This luminous Mary McGrath enamel plate captures the poetic spirit of Enamel Studio Craft work n the 1960s—where color, chemistry, and artistry converged to create functional pieces of modern art. McGrath’s work is celebrated for its layered surfaces and painterly technique, and this plate is an exceptional example of her mastery.
At the center, a swirling golden rosette radiates outward with remarkable depth and movement, each petal-like form pulled into place through the meticulous manipulation of molten enamel. Surrounding it, a shimmering field of soft blues, blush tones, and metallic highlights creates a delicate, atmospheric backdrop—an effect that feels both organic and celestial.
Fired on copper and finished with McGrath’s signature hand-executed textures, the plate reflects the hallmark qualities that make her work so collectible today: intricate surface patterning, sophisticated color blending, and a level of craftsmanship that is increasingly rare.
Perfect as a standalone art object, part of a wall installation, or a sculptural accent on a table or shelf, this piece represents the finest of mid-century American enamelwork.
